How Quebec differs from the federal Canadian holidays

Quebec keeps the most distinct statutory calendar in Canada under the Act respecting labour standards. It replaces Victoria Day with the Journée nationale des patriotes on the same Monday and adds the Fête nationale du Québec (Saint-Jean-Baptiste) on 24 June. Quebec law grants either Good Friday or Easter Monday at the employer's choice; this calculator counts Good Friday, the day banks and markets close nationwide. Boxing Day, Remembrance Day, and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation are not Quebec statutory holidays, so they are dropped from a Quebec count. The working week is Monday to Friday with a Saturday and Sunday weekend.
