Yeah,, it would would        be hard for families separated by provinces to get together if        the holiday wasn't enacted country-wide.                      GP> It can feel a long unbroken stretch between New Year's Day        GP> & Easter, so a February holiday makes sense. . .              I think that was part of the justification for establishing the        day in February. Prety much ever other month has at least one        holiday, and February had none.                     --         ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.57        * Origin: Stare into this point intently ->.<- (1:153/757.21)       SEEN-BY: 15/0 105/81 106/201 124/5016 129/305 134/100 153/0 141 143       SEEN-BY: 153/149 757 6809 7715 203/0 218/700 840 220/70 221/0 6 226/17       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/111 112 113 275 307 317 426 428 470 664       SEEN-BY: 229/700 240/1120 250/8 267/800 280/464 5003 282/1038 292/854       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 301/1 310/31 317/3 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 396/45       SEEN-BY: 423/120 633/280 712/848 770/1 100 340 772/210 220 230 2320/105       SEEN-BY: 3634/24       PATH: 153/757 280/464 770/1 317/3 229/426           |
