   They're still not agreed across all provinces on when this holiday should be   
   -- so if you're off work in one province & ghope to connect with family for a   
   long weekend in another province, it'll only be possible if they're in one of   
   the  ones you named. . .   
      
   I have no problem with the holiday in principle, but it would be nice to   
   enact  it federally so as to have consistency. . . & give our hard-working   
   posties a  paid day off (yeah, I know I got to help pay for it, but I get my   
   own paid day  off, too, when I'm working FT anyhow)   
      
   It can feel a long unbroken stretch between New Year's Day & Easter, so a    
   February holiday makes sense. . .
