Halloween Will Be Marked On The Sunday











Even though most people are still trying to find the right costume, some communities around the country are still fighting over what day Halloween should be celebrated on.

In Raymond, Alberta, the mayor says they will bump it back to Saturday because the 31st falls on Sunday. Here at home, officials at City Hall and the Town of Rothesay say they have no plans to move Halloween....... the day falls when it falls.

You might remember a few years back, then Saint John Mayor Shirley McAlary tried to bump back the day which created a hornets nest of controversy and eventually resulted in the day being celebrated on the 31st which fell on a Sunday.
