In some cases these people say they don't work at Christmas only because no one else does and they can't get work done as a result. Its a sign of the times that eventually the religious and cultural holidays that are not traditional in Canada will be more accommodated, and they'll become as known and accepted as Christmas, for example. This has been happening for a while and its only a matter of time until it becomes part of the fabric of the culture.
So atheists will have to work through religious holidays?
