When New Year's Day, Canada Day, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, Remembrance Day, Christmas Day or Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the Canada Labour Code gives a paid day off on the scheduled work day immediately before or after it. These counts use the work day after; if your employer gives the day before, your total changes only when the two days fall in different months.
