Hah I don’t know. I don’t know too much about Canadian history. BUT it is a true story that Canadians think their thanksgiving is the real thanksgiving. Ehm, USA started it!
Thanksgiving was started in Canada by the Cree Indian Tribe in Alberta at Beaver Lake about 1863 to give thanks for the food and materials the got every year.
That’s only what your being told by historians to make the American people feel better and think its theirs.
It really started in Briton with the British harvest festival, but we don’t brag about it or make a big thing about it 🙂 and then the Pilgrims took it to America, so you have the British to thank.
BUT the British didn’t share their Harvest Festival with Indians.We started that part of it for real.
I actually got my history degree in England and pretty much everyone agreed that it started in the good old USA. Hah I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree on this one, huh? 😉
I got my history degree in the university of life.
America only shared their harvest with the Indians after they had killed 99% of them and then only enough to keep them alive.
1) I feel like I got a history lesson in this post/comments so I thank you. I would have NEVER looked up what the heck is up with Canadian Thanksgiving.
B) My drama teacher was on How I met your mother recently. So someone I know met someone who PLAYS Barney in real life. That’s as close as I’ve got.
Hah that’s pretty close to a real Barney. I know, I had to really dig deep with my sweet history skills that I literally never use because honestly, who uses a history degree? But yeah, Canadian Thanksgiving..pshhh
Lily In Canada 
Is that a true story?

Barney’s last line was kinda good. I’m fighting the urge to say legend-ary.
Hah it was pretty legend-ary. Barney made a pretttty good point. Not gonna lie.
This perfect. Barney speaks the truth. What do they have to be thankful aboot anyway? Ha!
Barney knows what’s up. Hah I love throwing in “aboot” whenever possible.
nice
Thank you!
Canada fought pretty good in WWII.
Hah okay okay I guess they are good for somethin…

So to say its an American thing is wrong.
Yes, but American Thanksgiving started in 1621, so we started it 🙂

This is good isn’t it.
So good.
And the British were the ones who started colonizing and enslaving people in Africa and India. So I guess we’re even?
And have you ever heard of the saying ” i’m winding you up ” you should have seeing you lived in Briton 🙂
Hah you’re totally winding me up! I was like, ready to take the next flight out to battle it out face to face haha!
Haha, “why are you guys even a country?” Love it.
Hah it’s pretty perfect!
I know you were, i could read it in your last comment.
The Spanish and Portuguese were in Africa and India before the British.
Has anyone ever met a Barney in real life?
I’m pretty sure that no one ever has. If someone was named Barney, I’m pretty sure they’d have the sense to change their name.
