Most Ontarians I know serve pumpkin pie. It’s the highlight in my family’s celebration of the holiday. Same recipe being made by three generations. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
I am thankful for my family all around the table and all the beautiful food we enjoy together but most of all I am grateful to be able to give to others less fortunate than me and my family. I love helping out when I can.
Our Thanksgiving dinner this year was turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, homemade cornbread and pumpkin pie. Traditional as heck wouldn’t you say! One Thanksgiving we were invited to a friend’s home. Instead of pumpkin pie she made carrot pie. It was absolutely delicious, very similar to pumpkin pie because you use a lot of the same spices. Sweet potato pie likely takes on a similar taste and texture, they are all delicious.🇨🇦
@@micheleemcdaniel389 My Mom made the best butter tarts! From her Scottish mother’s recipe. There are now three generations making that 100+ year old recipe! 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
@@Momcat_maggiefelinefan Butter tarts only. Pumpkin pie is pretty well standard but there can be quite a variety with butter tart recipes. Yours sounds especially good.
The gravy! I always got to make it as a kid. Worst thing is running out, and we’d have turkey a few times during the year and I’d make stock and freeze it, along with the giblets and fat. On t-day we had almost two gallons of it, enough for everyone to take home with them.
I think that the Canadian Thanksgiving Day is closer to the time of Fall, 1621, when the shared harvest feast happened in the Plymouth area of Massachusetts, because, it would've been still warm enough to celebrate & feast outdoors, as opposed to the end of November, when, it's really cold outside.
Where does this guy get his information? I dont know of many ontariens that have butter tarts instead of pie. Also, we have travel on Thanksgiving, a lot of families are spread out, my children make a point to travel home for Thanksgiving. Most people i know also have a ham with the turkey.
Btw Thanksgiving is a statutory holiday in all provinces except Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. It is a big deal in the provinces that celebrate it. Families do travel and have big get togethers.
While it's not a stat here in NS, it's generally recognized and most places are closed. It's very much a family celebration with turkey and apple picking and hiking and all the other stuff :)
The best way to differentiate the thanksgiving dates in the U.S. and Canada is simply put: Canadian thanksgiving happens before Halloween, American thanksgiving happens after.
Here in Ontario , Canada we do have pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving . There are some people that don't like it so others pies like apple are served . True: our Prime Ministers doesn't pardon a turkey . HE IS ONE !
Most Black People in the US eat sweet potato pie. You better not bring a pumkin pie for Thanksgiving. My mom had sweet potato and pumkin one year and some family members were mad. I laughed.
Your idea of the Canadian Thanksgiving is way off,, Our family is both American and Canadian,, we live in Southern Ontario which is a lot more south than the northern states so its not in October bc of late harvest,, also in every province except the eastern (maritime) provinces it is a 3 day holiday weekend,, our dinners are the same in Canada as ours US Thanksgiving dinners,,, never heard of some of that other food were talking about about,,,, Canada's Thanksgiving (and Christmas) dinners are the same as the US,, also I've never had a butter tart in Canada for Thanksgiving dinner,, it's always pumpkin pie as well as a lot of others pies and goodies, which could include butter tarts but not traditionally,,,, Canadians do have black friday but it's the same day as the US and yes boxing day is another big shopping day. I don't were some Americans get all these weird things about Canada bc Canadians don't know wth your talking about either! 😂 There's not much difference between the culture of both countries but I do prefer living in Canada bc it's so beautiful, safe and clean,,, don't get me wrong I love the US!
Yeah, when he said, "Buttertart" and "Ontario", I was like ... huh? They're neither considered a traditional dessert item for Thanksgiving, nor unique or special to Ontarioans' celebrations, as we know. What's next? Should Nanaimo bars be on the menu in BC?
@@harrypettersen6714 A feast of thanksgiving and Thanksgiving the holiday are two different things…technically feasts of thanksgiving were recorded in America even before this…
You do know that Canada is literally part of America, right? You do know that the United States doesn't make up all of America, right? America isn't a country. It's two continents (or one, depending on where you're from). Any country part of said continent(s) is part of America. You mean Canadian vs United States Thanksgiving.

Black Friday sales ARE now held here in Canada on the same day as in the US!
@arejayseeottawa; MOST stores now have black Friday sales for a whole week, to keep Canadians from going into the States for that Holiday.

I love Pumpkin Pie🎃 🥧 and, mashed potatoes 🇨🇦 🍁 I love the crisp cool air
Ding, Dong You're wrong. We in Ontario eat plenty of pumpkin pie along with our Butter Tarts at Thanksgiving.
what I saw that guy was correct!

@@Momcat_maggiefelinefan Please share the recipe with us.
@ Pumpkin pie or butter tarts, or both? I’ll have to dig out the recipes …

Close to Halloween.
There’s always so much to be thankful for ❤

New Brunswick also doesn’t recognize it as a holiday
Love Thanksgiving along with family and friends ❤ be blessed everyone 🙏

Canadian Thanksgiving is also an American Thanksgiving. You mean United States Thanksgiving.
That's pretty much the only significant difference.
@@englishatheart The standard demonym for things and people from the United States is "American". One word can have more than one definition.
Thank you for explaining the differences.

Thanks for making the video, I used this in my text for school. Next time i recommend you to use timestamps
Happy Thanksgiving Day, 🇨🇦!

My weird nephew likes pumpkin pie for some reason I guess he's going through that rebel teenage faze lol
Very true! Well southern black folks I think more accustomed to it. My bothers cousin prefer pumpkin….I can’t do pumpkin unless cooked just right
Love sweet potatoe pie, we eat that in Canada as well as pumpkin pie
Sweet potatoes are an abomination.
Pumpkin pie is gross and also sweet potato pie is gross
cool

@@englishatheartCanadians are North Americans. Plz educate yourself
Too bad Nova Scotia PEI not onboard with Thanksgiving 😂🦃🦃🦃
We have a Goddess government but really this is a Christian holiday 🕊️🙏
Don't forget they then get to stay in the Presidential Zoo
We have Thank giving kegger .
🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦😊
Yes, individual feasts of Thanksgiving may have been held in Canada first, but Thanksgiving as a national holiday happened in the US first.
And? Still doesn't change the fact that Thanksgiving was celebrated in Canada before the US.

@@tc2334 Ok got it. Many Americans have to say they are number one, no matter what. 🙄
@@harrypettersen6714 Which American? You?
This is true!! No Black friday for Canada!! I love my country!! 😁👍🇨🇦
People camp out for Black Friday here in the US. I have never gone because it can be dangerous. People fight.
Doesnt stop you from being able to use online black friday shopping, cheers
except it's not true. we do have black friday but it's still fairly new. canada has had black friday since the late 2000's
Our Prime Minister definitely pardons turkeys. After each of his scandals he looks in the mirror and says I've done nothing wrong. See... 🦃 pardoned.
😂 Good one!
Look to the Conservative Party if you want scandals
@andywood5699 O yes. Prime Minister Poilivre is destroying the country with his many scandals... I forgot.
Texas had the first Thanksgiving. But, Canadians haven't had a reason to be thankful since Trudeau became Prime Minister, Eh!
I think Florida had the first Thanksgiving.

Wrong. Canada is part of North America not America.
Canadian Thanksgiving sucks
Nah, just you.
stupid comment
April is Easter, never in my lifetime was Thanksgiving in April
