Victoria Day

Monday was Victoria Day, named after Queen Victoria.
The third Monday in May is the unofficial beginning of summer in Canada.
It is the day when the landlords turn off the heat in buildings and turn on the air-conditioning (if they have it).
But it is freezing cold and rainy now. It is thundering now.
We don't have spring in Toronto. We go directly from winter to summer.
