Victoria Day is coming up, and you’re probably wondering: what’s open and closed for this federal holiday? No worries, we’ve got all your bases covered.
If you aren’t familiar with what the holiday is about, Victoria Day is all about the celebration of the Sovereign’s birthday in Canada, a tradition unique to our country. It’s been celebrated since the reign of Queen Victoria in the late 1800s.
The holiday itself falls on Monday, May 18, and we’ve got all the information you’ll need on what’s open and closed on Monday.

Enjoy the fresh air, folks!
