Canada celebrates Thanksgiving on the second Monday in October while in USA it is the fourth Thursday in November. Thanksgiving is a day to give thanks for harvest by the pilgrim settlers and is not based on a historical date like Christmas. So, the entire world does not celebrate Thanksgiving and even those that do, frequently celebrate on different dates from the United States. Canada is a perfect example.
Canada's Thanksgiving is based on a bountiful harvest and on the Pilgrims and the New World like the United States holiday. It occurs earlier than the US Thanksgiving because Canada is north of the United States, and therefore the harvest season occurs earlier in the year. So, it only makes sense for Canada to celebrate its fall harvest during their fall and harvest time!
Amazingly, the first Canadian Thanksgiving goes back even further than that of the United States when the first settlers in Massachusettes on their first harvest in 1621. Back in 1578, an English explorer named Martin Frobisher was trying to find a northern route to the Orient. He was not successful in his quest, but he did end up establishing a settlement somewhere along what is Newfoundland today. Despite not making it to the Orient, Frobisher was thankful the journey had been safe and decided to have a day of thanks. This resulted in the first Canadian Thanksgiving.
During this same time frame, many French settlers were making their way to the area and also began having days of thanks during the harvest time. They, like the American Pilgrims, invited local Indians to take part in their feast.
The harvest season takes place earlier in Canada than it does in the USA. Thanksgiving is a celebration at the end of the harvest and therefore Canadians have it before the later harvest season to the south.
The biggest reason the dates are different is because Canada has a shorter growing season than the United States. Canada has their Thanksgiving earlier because winter comes sooner and crops need to be harvested before they are killed by the cold.
