How every date is checked

Our method

01

Official sources only

Dates come from the CRA, Service Canada, provincial governments, school boards and organizers. If two sources disagree, the date is left out.

02

A "last checked" date on every page

See when each page was last compared with its sources, and follow the links to check for yourself.

03

Same address every year

When next year's dates are published, the page is updated in place, so your bookmark keeps working.
