Many Canadians take the time to observe Groundhog Day on February 2 each year, which is also Candlemas. Groundhog Day in Canada focuses on the concept of a groundhog coming out of its home in mid-winter to “predict” if spring is on its way in the northern hemisphere.
It is celebrated on February 2nd every year in Canada and the United States. They want to predict how long winter will last. They need the help of a GROUNDHOG.
The Mayor asks the groundhog if he sees his shadow. If the answer is YES, there will be 6 more weeks of winter. If the answer is NO, there will be only 4 more weeks of winter.
