| Friday 25 December 2026 | Christmas Day | |
| Saturday 26 December 2026 | Boxing Day | Falls on a weekend. |
In Ontario, 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 gets a substitute day off with public holiday pay, arranged for each employee, or public holiday pay alone if the employee agrees in writing. 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.
