Properly called Simcoe Day, commonly called the August civic holiday, most people in the Greater Toronto Area can call Monday a day off.
Businesses are not required to close Monday under the provincial Retail Business Holidays Act, so they may open at the discretion of the municipality.
The holiday is also observed in most other provinces and territories, although it goes by different names and is often celebrated with different traditions: In Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island the day is known as as Natal Day, while it is Regatta Day in Newfoundland. Even in Ottawa the Civic Holiday goes by a different name, often referred to as Colonel By Day.
