@evan I answered "No, but" — but I misunderstood your question as proposing that we should have a holiday.
Yes, we should have an official day honouring Sir John A. (No, we should not have a statutory holiday for any of our PMs.)

@mpjgregoire I don't think the Act calls it a statutory holiday.

@ianrogers We already have an official day for John A. MacDonald. It's today, January 11.
I don't think it's ridiculous to ask whether we should. I think it's always a good idea to revisit whether this kind of commemoration make sense.

Also, choosing Bangkok for a 3 day layover from Sydney to Amsterdam may have been the best idea I've had in my life.

@aeva @SnoopJ the use of "Current*", which I always have a quick "ugh" about, really sealed it for me.
