“OOOpps we have Easter Egg on our Faces, we made an error in the BIC Calendar!”…

Feb 10, 2023

The new 2023 Boating Industry Canada calendar by Canadian Yachting Media, was mailed out in November, packaged with the December 2022 issue of Canadian Yachting Magazine and then we distributed many to appreciative readers at the Toronto International & Vancouver International Boat Shows, all without realizing that there was an error – the Easter and Passover dates were incorrectly displayed.

The correct dates are:
Sunday April 2 – Palm Sunday
Wednesday April 5 – Erev Passover
Thursday April 6 – Passover
Friday April 7 – Good Friday
Sunday April 9 – Easter Sunday

We regret this error and sincerely hope it does not result in any inconvenience. We suggest that you correct these dates on your calendar to avoid any problems.
