1. Canadian Origin?

起源于加拿大?

While most Americans likely consider Labor Day a uniquely American experience, but in all reality, Labor Day has its origins in Canada. Stemming from 1870’s labor disputes in Toronto, in 1872 a parade was held in support of a strike against the 58 hour workweek. As a result, 24 union leaders who were responsible for organizing the event were arrested under anti-union laws.

很多美国人会认为劳动节是美国的传统节日，但实际上，劳动节起源于加拿大。19世纪70年代在多伦多有很多劳务纠纷，很多工人被迫长时间工作，1872年，不堪剥削的工人罢工游行，反对一周58小时的工作时间。结果，负责组织这次游行的24位带头人因违法反法律被抓。
