Source and date notes

This calendar follows Canada Labour Code Part III, Division V and the related federal holiday statutes. Federal enactments are reproduced under the Reproduction of Federal Law Order, SI/97-5; this is not an official version. Good Friday is cross-checked against the GOV.UK bank-holiday source, which is published under the Open Government Licence v3.0. The dates are nominal holidays for federally regulated employers; employer or collective-agreement substitutions and alternate days for non-working days depend on the employer and employee context, so observed is null. This is not a universal closure calendar.
