Mother’s Day Holiday History In Canada

The celebration of Mother’s Day has been commercialized in the US over time. However, the history of the commemoration in Canada originates from the same time. When Anna Jarvis began campaigning for the institution of Mother’s Day in the USA, the tradition spilled over the boundaries. Canadians also took this opportunity to honour and esteem their mother and mother-figures. Humans have always revered their mothers as goddesses or a symbol of purity throughout history, as is evident in various cultures and religions. Thus, when the bill was finally passed in America, the celebration of Mother’s Day in Canada also began.

Public Life on New Mother’s Day in Canada

Mother’s Day in Canada is celebrated by the people, on a personal level. Although, this is not a day off for the working class, yet those who live close enough to their moms take out the time to visit her and treat her to a scrumptious dinner among other gifts. Yet, some cannot present her with the gift of their time due to distance. They instead utilize the wonderful system of delivery to send her presents from wherever they are. Let us take a look at some of these Mother’s Day gifts:

  • Flowers: Although Carnations are the traditional Mother’s Day flowers, people also give other blooms to their moms or mother-figures. Many also prefer giving a piece of Carnation-shaped jewellery, or using a Carnation as a brooch etc. on the day. Another favourite for Mother’s Day in Canada is the Rose, which is the most-given Mother’s Day flower. Lighter red or deep pink colour of this blossom denotes gratitude and appreciation. French Canadian men in Quebec have a custom of presenting their mothers and wives with a rose.

  • Breakfast-in-Bed: This is, of course, the most popular Mother’s Day gift. To show their appreciation for her, children (no matter their ages) give their moms a day off and pamper her. This gesture begins typically with breakfast in bed for her, complete with a flower (usually cooked with the help of Dad).

  • Time: This is probably the most precious gift one can give their mothers. In our hectic daily lives, we rarely get the time to sit with our moms and let her know how much we love them. Mother’s Day in Canada is an opportunity for the public to spend the entire Sunday with their mum. They plan games and mother-children activities with her throughout the day and shower her with gifts. The kids usually end the day with a dinner (whether home-cooked by them or at a restaurant). Some can also plan a surprise party for her.
