Thanksgiving in Canada is the second Monday of October. The next Canadian Thanksgiving is Monday, October 12, 2026. The counter above shows the exact hours until it begins, at midnight (00:00) in your time zone.
How this is calculated
The countdown targets midnight (00:00) at the start of Canadian Thanksgiving in the selected time zone —the second Monday of October. That wall-clock time is resolved to an absolute instant, the current instant is subtracted, and the result is shown in hours. Working in absolute time means an interval that crosses a daylight saving change is an hour longer or shorter than the calendar suggests, and the number here reflects that.
The date follows the Canada rule. Other countries may observe Canadian Thanksgiving on a different day.
The time zone is part of the link, so a countdown shared from one place shows the same hours everywhere. When Canadian Thanksgiving passes, the counter moves to the next one.
