Bonne Fête nationale – Happy National Holiday

La Fête nationale du Québec, traditionnellement appelée la Saint-Jean-Baptiste ou Saint-Jean, est la fête nationale des Québécois. En vertu de la Loi sur la fête nationale, le 24 juin est une journée fériée et chômée au Québec.

Cette date est d’abord celle de la fête religieuse célébrant la naissance de Jean le Baptiste qui s’est plus tard imposée, à partir de 1834, comme fête nationale des Canadiens français. Reconnue jour férié par la province de Québec dans les années 1920, le gouvernement souverainiste du Parti québécois l’a déclarée « fête nationale du Québec » en 1977.

Depuis 1984, le Mouvement national des Québécoises et Québécois est officiellement responsable de la coordination des festivités qui se déroulent les 23 et 24 juin de chaque année.



Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day,
( Fête de la Saint-Jean-Baptiste), officially known in Quebec as La fête nationale, (English: National Holiday) is a holiday celebrated annually on June 24, the feast day of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist. In Quebec, it is a public holiday with festivities occurring on June 23 and 24 which are publicly financed and organized by a Comité organisateur de la fête nationale (Organizing Committee of the National Holiday). June 24 is also celebrated as a festival of French Canadian culture in other Canadian provinces and the United States
