加拿大感恩節英文介紹

The origin of Thanksgiving Day in Canada

The celebration of Thanksgiving Day in Canada is on the second Monday in October. With Americans to remember the traditions of the new world, the people of the new world, Canadians are mainly thanks to the success of the harvest. Canada's Thanksgiving Day, a simple fact, is a simple fact of the harvest season in Canada as a little earlier than the United States, as Canada is closer to the north. Thanksgiving Day in Canada is generally considered to be influenced by three traditional habits.

One is the influence of European tradition. From the beginning of the first harvest of 2000 years ago, people have celebrated the harvest, thanks to the rich nature of the Enshi and good luck to give them. When the Europeans came to Canada, it also brought the tradition to Canada, and it had an impact on the traditional Canadian Thanksgiving Day.

Second is the impact of the British explorers to celebrate the survival. Canada held its first official Thanksgiving in 40 years before the pilgrims landed in America. In 1578, a British explorer named Ma Fabesse (Frobisher Martin) tried to find a connection to the east of the channel, but he did not succeed. But he founded a settlement in the Canadian province of Newfoundland, and held a celebration of the feast of harvest and survival. Other subsequent settlers continued these "thanksgiving" ceremonies. This time, it was considered the first Thanksgiving Day in Canada.

Its impact comes from the United States later. In the autumn of 1621, Toshibu Shigeyo came to the new world of British immigrants, in order to thank God for the harvest, held 3 days of Carnival activities. From then on, this custom has become popular all over the world. During the American Revolution in the meantime, the United States a number of loyal to loyalist of the British royal family migrated to Canada, will also be habit and way of Thanksgiving Day in the United States to Canada. 1750 to celebrate the harvest is from southern United States settlers to Nova Scotia. At the same time, French settlers arrived, and held a feast of Thanksgiving. All of these have a profound impact on the Thanksgiving Day in Canada.

1879 Canada's parliament declared November 6th Thanksgiving Day and national holiday. In the ensuing years, the date of Thanksgiving changed many times, until in January 31, 1957, the Canadian Parliament announced the second Monday of October as Thanksgiving Day, Thanksgiving Day in this day, thank God Almighty God bless Canada and give a rich harvest.

加拿大感恩節的由來

加拿大感恩節的慶祝活動是在10月的第二個星期一。與美國人緬懷清教徒先輩定居新大陸的傳統不同，加拿大人主要感謝上天給予的成功的收穫。加拿大的感恩節早於美國的感恩節，一個簡單的事實是，加拿大的收穫季節相對於美國早一些，因為加拿大更靠近北部。加拿大的`感恩節通常被認為受三個傳統習慣的影響。

其一是來自歐洲傳統的影響。從大約2000年以前最早的一次收穫開始，人們就已經慶祝豐收，感謝富饒的大自然給予他們的恩施和好運。當歐洲人來到加拿大後，也將這一傳統帶入加拿大，並對後來加拿大感恩節的傳統產生影響。

其二是英國探險家慶祝生存的影響。在清教徒登陸美國馬薩諸塞的40年之前，加拿大就舉行了第一個正式的感恩節。在1578年，一位英國探險家命名馬釘法貝瑟(Martin Frobisher)試圖發現一個連線東方的通道，不過他沒有成功。但是他在現今的加拿大紐芬蘭省建立了定居點，並舉行了一個慶祝生存和收穫的宴餐。其它後來的移居者繼續這些“感恩”儀式。這一次被認為是加拿大的第一個感恩節。

其三的影響來自於後來的美國。1621年的秋天，遠涉重洋來到美洲新大陸的英國移民，為了感謝上帝賜予的豐收，舉行了3天的狂歡活動。從此，這一習俗就沿續下來，並逐漸風行各地。在美國革命其間，美國一批忠於英皇室的保皇黨遷移到加拿大，也將美國感恩節的習慣和方式帶到了加拿大。1750年慶祝豐收的活動被來自美國南部的移居者帶到了新四科舍(Nova Scotia)，同時，法國移居者到達，並且舉行“感恩”宴餐。這些均對加拿大的感恩節產生了深遠的影響。

1879 年加拿大議會宣稱11月6日是感恩節和全國性的假日。在隨後的年代，感恩節的日期改變了多次，直到在1957 年1月31日，加拿大議會宣佈每年10月的第二個星期一為感恩節，在這一天感謝萬能的上帝保佑加拿大並給予豐富的收穫。
