What holiday is Canada celebrating today? --- ignorant American

It's confusing, it's called Family Day in a lot of places but some provinces are naming it after historical figures, in Nova Scotia we have Joseph Howe day and in Manitoba it's Louis Riel day. However, these are also just one offs, in that every year they're picking a new figure or something along those lines. Basically it's just a made up day to get a day off in February but a lot of people don't even get the day off.

So, kind of like festivus?

Throwback to a crazy night -



Ah, gotta love the biased commentary.

Not sure what Berube was thinking there. Love Sawyer's response (not his execution, unnecessarily dangerous play). Giggy stepping up/helping out Tverdovsky is :handclap: :laugh:

Can you even imagine that happening in today's NHL?
