Public Sleeping and Vincent Massey ~j

February 28, 2014


Public Sleeping Day




When : Always February 28th

Public Sleeping Day is an opportunity to sleep in public. We can think of a whole lot of places to sleep in the public eye. And, today is the day to do it.

You can sleep on a park bench. You can doze on a blanket on the beach. Some people may opt to sleep on the job. They do so at their own risk. Have you ever caught twenty winks on a bus or subway traveling to or from work? Sure, we all have.

Wherever you choose to sleep today, we hope it is peaceful and restful.



February 28, 1952 - Vincent Massey installed as First Canadian-born Governor General of Canada; serves 1952-59; former President of the Massey-Harris Company 1921-25; Canada's First Ambassador to the United States 1926-30; Canadian High Commissioner in London 1935-46. Ottawa, Ontario
