Labour Day
Monday, September 3rd
Labour Day is an annual holiday to celebrate the achievement of
workers. Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement,
specifically the eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight
hours for work, eight hours for recreation, and eight hours for rest.
(Aren’t you glad we don’t have 12 hour work days any more?)
For most countries, Labour Day is synonymous with, or linked
with, International Workers’ Day, which occurs on May 1. For other
countries, Labour Day is celebrated on a different date, often one with
special significance for the labour movement in that country. Labour
Day is a public holiday in many countries.
In Canada and the United States, Labour Day is celebrated on the
first Monday of September and has become the unofficial end of
summer with vacations ending, swimming pools closing, and school
beginning.
It's one of the most popular days of the year for picnics and
swimming parties. So if you don't really want a day of rest, why not
make it a day of fun?

Your bucket list is personal, and is for you to create. But if
you’d like a suggestion on something amazing to add to your
list in Canada, here’s something you may want to check out:
“Trip the Northern Lights fantastic in The Yukon”
Northern lights, camera tripod, action! Seeing the aurora
borealis in full sky-dance motion captures you like nothing on
earth, and Canada's Yukon territory is one of the best places to
make it happen.
The small town of Whitehorse is the main gateway for aurora
borealis tourism, with November to March the peak months for
activity.
Once there, you can snow-shoe, snowmobile or even dog-
mush into the wilderness.
How’s that sound? It may not be first on your list, but it’s a
good one to add if you want.
