With Canadays, you will be aware of the next public holidays in Canada and the provinces. But time matters, so as soon you are opening the app, you will be able to display the current weather observation, see when the next holiday is coming, get some historical events that happened on the this day, and random quotes for fun. But it's not all. You can keep yourself informed as the news tab is displaying the latest feed from CBC News, and you can check individually all the public holidays. The app can also work without internet connection. Currently, the internet connection is only needed to retrieve the weather and news but that's all. There is no advertisement nor tracking.
