THANKSGIVING DAY

Thanksgiving Day is a harvest festival celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada.
Traditionally, it has been a time to give thanks for a bountiful harvest. While there was an
underlying religious element in the original celebration, Thanksgiving today is primarily identified
as a secular holiday.

Thanksgiving (Canada)
The origins of the first Thanksgiving in Canada goes back to an explorer, Martin Frobisher, who
had been trying to find a northern passage to the Pacific Ocean. Frobisher's Thanksgiving
celebration was not for harvest, but for homecoming. He had safely returned from an unsuccessful
search for the Northwest Passage, avoiding the later fate of Henry Hudson and Sir John Franklin.
In the year 1578, Frobisher held a formal ceremony in Newfoundland to give thanks for surviving
the long journey. Years later, the tradition of a feast would continue as more settlers began to
arrive to the Canadian colonies.

The origins of Canadian Thanksgiving can also be traced to the French settlers who came to New
France with explorer Samuel de Champlain in the early 17th century, who also took to celebrating
their successful harvests. The French settlers in the area typically had feasts at the end of the
harvest season and continued throughout the winter season, even sharing their food with the
indigenous peoples of the area. Champlain had also proposed for the creation of the Order of
Good Cheer in 1606.
As many more settlers arrived in Canada, more celebrations of good harvest became common.
New immigrants into the country, such as the Irish, Scottish and Germans, would also add their
own traditions to the harvest celebrations. Most of the U.S. aspects of Thanksgiving (such as the
turkey) were incorporated when United Empire Loyalists began to flee from the United States
during the American Revolution and settled in Canada.

Thanksgiving (United States)

In the United States, the modern Thanksgiving holiday tradition traces its origins to a 1621. There
is also evidence for an earlier harvest celebration on the continent by Spanish explorers in Florida
during 1565, as well as thanksgiving feasts in the Virginia Colony. The initial thanksgiving
observance at Virginia in 1619 was prompted by the colonists' leaders to give thanks to God on
the anniversary of the settlement. The 1621 Plymouth feast and thanksgiving to God was
prompted by a good harvest. In later years, the tradition was continued by civil leaders such as
Governor Bradford who planned a thanksgiving celebration in 1623. a fast, While initially, the
Plymouth colony did not have enough food to feed half of the 102 colonists, the Wampanoag
Native Americans helped the Pilgrims by providing seeds and teaching them to fish. The practice
of holding an annual harvest festival like this however, did not become a regular affair in New
England until the late 1660s.

1. Write about the different purposes of early thanksgiving celebrations in both, Canada and in the United States.

In Canada they go back to an explorer, Martin Frobisher, who had been trying to find a north passage
to the Pacific Ocean, Frobisher's Thanksgiving celebration was not for harvest, but for homecoming
as he had returned safely. In the USA the initial celebration of thanksgiving in Virginia in 1619 was
driven by settler leaders to thank God on the anniversary of the settlement.

2. Write about the kind of help Native Americans gave to the Pilgrims and on what purpose it
was given.
They gave them seeds and helped them fish.

3. What do you think about this kind of celebrations?

I think that such celebrations are very important because it is good to thank god for our well-being and all the
good things we have.
