🍁 Celebrating Thanksgiving, Canadian Style! 🇨🇦
Thanksgiving in Canada is a tradition rooted in gratitude, community and the celebration of the harvest. Officially recognized as a national holiday in 1879, it has been celebrated on the second Monday in October since 1957.

At ITPS Canada, Thanksgiving brings our students and staff together to share Canadian traditions, enjoy good food and celebrate the people who make our international community unique.

During our gathering, Dave Lohse, CEO of ITPS Canada, shared the history and significance of Canadian Thanksgiving, tracing its evolution from early harvest celebrations to a national tradition of gratitude. For our students and staff from around the world, his address offered insight into Canadian culture and the importance of appreciating the opportunities, experiences and relationships that bring us together.

The occasion also provided an opportunity to recognize an important achievement at ITPS Canada. Giorgio Clementi, Executive Chairman and Chief Technology Officer, presented members of the multidisciplinary Advanced Controls Evaluator (ACE) jet team with special commemorative coins. The presentation recognized the combined expertise, dedication and collaboration of the engineers, pilots, maintenance professionals and technical support personnel whose contributions made ACE's successful first flight possible.

As ITPS Canada continues to advance aerospace training through innovation and operational excellence, gatherings like these remind us that our greatest strength is the people behind our achievements.

From all of us at the International Test Pilots School and International Tactical Training Centre, Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!
