| About St. Patrick's Day |
| The St. Patrick’s Day is a public holiday in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador on the nearest Monday to March 17th of each year. St.Patrick’s is one of the patron saints of Ireland. Celebrated as early as 1759 as a Catholic holiday by Irish soldiers stationed in a Montreal garrison, the St. Patrick’s Day parade has been a staple in Quebec since 1824. St Patrick's Day marks the feast day and anniversary of the death of a Christian missionary known as Patrick. He played an important role in converting the inhabitants of Ireland to Christianity. Now, his feast day is an opportunity to celebrate Irish culture. St. Patricks Day is very occasionally affected by this requirement. St Patrick's Day celebrations were brought to Canada by Irish immigrants. |
