感恩節(Thanksgiving Day)在北美屬於一個特別大的節日，特別是對於加拿大人和美國人來說，這個節日特別重要，即使遠在異鄉的人也都要在節日前趕回去與家人團聚，共慶佳節。不過，加拿大的感恩節和美國的感恩節不在同一天，加拿大的感恩節是在每年10月的第2個星期一，而美國則是在11月的最後一個星期四。

爲什麼叫感恩節呢?追根溯源，感恩節是和美洲古代的印第安人有關，特別是和玉米的種植有十分密切的關係。1620年9月6日，一批英國清教徒難以忍受宗教的迫害，搭乘“五月花號”木船駛往美洲。他們在疲勞、飢餓、寒冷和疾病的'襲擊下在大西洋上漂泊了65天，最後到達北美殖民地的普利茅斯。

當時正值冬季，氣候嚴寒，田野寂寥。當地印第安人慷慨地拿出貯藏越冬的玉米和土豆，送去獵獲的野鴨和火雞。春天來了，印第安人教他們種植玉米和南瓜，飼養火雞。白人移民和印第安人建立了親密的友誼。這年秋季玉米豐收，移民們舉行了豐盛的感恩會，用烤火雞和玉米糕點款待印第安人。印第安人帶着各種玉米制品、烤火雞、南瓜餡餅、野葡萄以及玉米酒漿等參加晚會，人們歡唱歌舞，通宵達旦。以後在每年玉米收穫後的11月底，定居在這裏的白人移民都要舉行感恩會，家家烤火雞，烹製玉米食品，款待印第安人。長此以往，這種感恩會就成爲一種慣例。
