[FairfieldLife] Curious, and lazy, inquiry about "Thanksgiving" in other countries

[fleetwood_macnche...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]]

I mentioned about Thanksgiving, being a less commercial holiday than our 
others, and am curious if a similar holiday exists in the other countries 
represented here? In other words, one not tied to religion or patriotism, or a 
great person, but simply to give thanks for what we have.
