We are closed for Labour Day on Monday, September 2ed. Canada's Labour Day, celebrated on the first Monday in September, is a national holiday that honours the contributions of workers and the labour movement. It originated in the 19th century, inspired by labour protests in Toronto in 1872, which played a crucial role in securing workers' rights and fair labour practices. Today, Labour Day is marked by parades, picnics, and public events, providing an opportunity for Canadians to relax and enjoy time with family and friends. It also serves as a reminder of the ongoing importance of fair work conditions, labour rights, and the value of collective bargaining. As the unofficial end of summer, Labour Day weekend also signifies the return to school and regular routines for many Canadians.
