None. Here's why:
1. Jews do not celebrate Christmas; and Channukah is not the same as Christmas.
2. The channukiah (Channukah-menorah) holds a total of 9 candles so on the last night all 9 are lit. 8 candles represent the miracle that Channukah celebrates and the 9th one, called the shamesh, is used to light the other candles.
