It's Thanksgiving in Canada, which typically means family gatherings, way too much turkey and some form of pumpkin dessert.
While some Canadian athletes enjoyed a traditional feast, others remained hard at work, so let's take a look at how some of Canada's finest spent Turkey Day.
Pan Am basketball champion Kia Nurse gave a shout out to her "squad" for Thanksgiving.
happy thanksgiving to all my Canadians... so blessed to have so many people in my life to be thankful for. Especially this incredible squad💕 http://pic.twitter.com/b53UMyxFM5

Tennis pro Genie Bouchard rocked her Team Canada gear for the holiday.

While it's never easy to work on the holidays, for athletes like Kim Gaucher, it helps to be surrounded by your second family.
A few Team Canada athletes were thankful for more than just turkey this year as the Toronto Blue Jays advanced to the ALCS on Sunday night.

Olympians weren't the only Canadians cheering on the Blue Jays. NHL player Matt Duchene enjoyed a sports-filled Sunday.
