Cinco de Mayo

Cinco de Mayo
May 5, 2025 by LorriK

Cinco de Mayo, which means “Fifth of May” in Spanish, commemorates the Mexican victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. It is often mistaken for Mexico’s Independence Day (which is actually September 16), Cinco de Mayo marks a symbolic military triumph.

The holiday is more widely celebrated in Canada and the United States than in Mexico—especially in areas with large Mexican-American communities—it serves as a celebration of Mexican culture, heritage, and pride. Festivities often include music, dancing, traditional food, and parades.

Check out the Canada Learning Bond information on this website to see if you or your children qualify for the Canada Learning Bond. You could receive up to $2,000 for post-secondary education.
