October 2026 calendar for Canada

October 2026 begins on a Thursday. 31 days later it ends on a Saturday. As the 10th month it falls in Q4: days 274 to 304 of 2026, and 61 days left afterwards. On the ISO week numbering most European employers and schools use, it runs from week 40 to week 44. That works out at 22 working days and 9 weekend days, made up of 5 Saturdays and 4 Sundays, plus five each of Thursdays and Fridays.

Mark Thanksgiving Day on Monday October 12. Canada treats that as a public holiday, so schools shut, most offices shut, and anything needing a third party will wait. A few other dates get marked without anyone getting the day off: Halloween on the 31st. October usually means Halloween, fall foliage and the end of Daylight Saving Time, and in most households that shows up in the diary as half-term plans, Halloween events and year-end budgeting. All of it is already on the grid above, so you don't have to write any of it in yourself.

The calendar above is editable in the browser. Click a day, start typing, and it saves as you go. Use it for appointments, birthdays, shifts, bill dates, school runs, whatever you'd otherwise scribble on the copy stuck to the fridge. Without an account the notes live in this browser only. With one, they turn up wherever you sign in. The small dot in the corner of each day sets a highlight colour, handy for marking who's on duty or which deadline actually matters. Then Print it. Menus, buttons and adverts are dropped automatically, so what comes out is the calendar and your own notes. Use Download PDF if you'd rather email it to someone.

Weeks here start on Sunday, which is how calendars are normally laid out in the US and Canada. Options lets you flip it, turn ISO week numbers on, hide the holidays, or give the rows more height. The country menu changes which holidays appear. Same October 2026 layout, whether you need US federal dates, UK bank holidays or French jours fériés. If you'd rather have a file than a web page, the month downloads as a PDF in Letter, Legal, Tabloid, A4 or A3, and the full year is available as an Excel workbook with one sheet per month.
