Mother's Day in Canada is celebrated on the second Sunday in May each year.
The origins of Mother's Day can be traced back to ancient festivals, but the modern iteration is largely influenced by the American version initiated by Anna Jarvis in the early 20th century. Jarvis's campaign led to President Woodrow Wilson officially declaring the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day in the U.S. in 1914. Canada adopted this tradition soon after.
Mother's Day is not a public holiday in Canada; businesses follow regular Sunday opening hours. Despite its commercialization over time, it remains an important day for honoring motherhood and maternal figures across Canada.
