It's just sinking in that this Family Day thing is for real. For those of you reading outside of Ontario, Family Day was an election promise by provincial Liberal Party leader Dalton McGuinty. McGuinty got reelected and made it official on October 11, 2007. Tomorrow will be our very first Family Day which means I don't have to go to the office.
Saskatchewan, Alberta and Manitoba already have a Family Day holiday in February. We needed a day off in February as a statutory holiday between New Years Day and Good Friday. Now I just need somebody to promise me a stat day in June and we're all set.
Does everybody out there in Ontario get tomorrow off or are some of you getting the short end of the shaft?
