About IsItOpen.ca

IsItOpen.ca answers one question fast: is it open on the holiday? We cover major Canadian retailers, grocery chains, liquor stores, banks and Canada Post on every holiday, province by province.

How we decide an answer

• Official store or company pages first. If a company publishes its holiday hours (for example the LCBO calendar, Canada Post's holiday schedule or Costco Business Centre closures), we use that.
• Provincial retail-closing laws second. Some provinces require most stores to close on certain holidays: Ontario's Retail Business Holidays Act, Quebec's rules on commercial opening hours, and the Atlantic provinces' closing-day laws. When the law requires a large chain store to close, we say so and link the law.
• Otherwise we say "check your local store". We don't guess. If a store hasn't published hours and no law decides it, we tell you that plainly.

Every answer shows its source and the date we last checked it (currently 2026-10-15). Hours vary by location, and malls, tourist areas and small or exempt stores can follow different rules. If it matters, call ahead.
