"Merry Christmas" vs "Happy Holidays"

Canada's National Post reports that 67% of Canadians will be inclined to wish others "Merry Christmas" this year, not the politically correct "Happy Holidays". Why so? Here's a possible answer.

That number comes from a poll of 1002 adults in Canada conducted by Research Co. 67% is an increase of 5 points from the firm’s same polling in 2024. For 2025, almost as many are not sure or don't care (16%) as there are those who prefer the "less denominational" (read: woke) "Happy Holidays" (18%) -- a 16% drop from last year.

Walt hasn't seen any similar poll on the preference of Americans, but if the more liberal Canucks cling to their old-fashioned Christian tradition in this matter, I'd expect Americans to do the same, only (being Americans) even more so! Merry Christmas!
