| Date | Holiday | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Monday 18 May 2026 | Victoria Day |
In Alberta, a holiday that falls on a Saturday or Sunday is not moved to a fixed weekday: an employee who does not normally work that day, and does not work it, gets neither holiday pay nor a day off in lieu. These counts therefore subtract no substitute weekday; if your employer gives you one, count one working day fewer. The moves fixed by law are counted: Canada Day moves to 2 July when 1 July is a Sunday.
