It has nothing to do with atheists as it is to Canada as a whole not wanting to offend anyone's relgion/belief system that we do everything to accommodate everyone Canada will no longer have it's own identity.
How sure are you it's not conservative Canadian Christians themselves trying to get rid of Santa and restore the holiday to what they perceive as its "Christian" roots? After all, Santa Claus has absolutely nothing to do with the birth of Christ.
