20 May - Victoria Day in Canada
Queen's Day or Victoria Day is a Canadian public holiday celebrated each year on the Monday preceding May 25 in honor of Queen Victoria. This is also the day that the official birthday of the monarch of Canada is celebrated. Victoria Day is also informally considered to mark the start of the summer season in Canada.
The holiday existed before the creation of the Canadian Confederation: it was originally celebrated on the Queen's true birthday, May 24.
