Happy Thanksgiving, my Cannuk pony pals!

Could someone explain to me how Canadian thanksgiving and American thanksgiving are different? Does Canadian Thanksgiving have an orgin story (like the US does with the Mayflower pilgrims, etc)?

You ladies n' gent are my neighbors, and I know so little about your country!

Hiya neighbour! There is a great summary about the origin of Canadian Thanksgiving at http://www.twilightbridge.com/hobbies/festivals/thanksgiving/canada/and they say "Unlike the American tradition of remembering Pilgrims and settling in the New World, Canadians give thanks for a successful harvest. The harvest season falls earlier in Canada compared to the United States due to the simple fact that Canada is further north."
