Everyone has a fourth of july, unless they don't go by the common "gregorian" calendar. Those people call it something different, but it is still considered the same day(july 4th) to people who do use that calendar. IF you are talking about independance day, as a national holiday on July 4th every year, then only people in the United States have it as a holiday, it is not important to any other countries because they did not adopt the "Declaration of Independance" on that day. Other countries do have their own day that they declared independance from another country or formed a country, but it does not fall on july 4th, and is only a national holiday in that country.

The UK celebrates the Sovereign's birthday.
In Canada It's the 1st of July- Canada Day_ commemorates our independence in 1867, As a member of the Commonwealth we also celebrate the Queen's B'day. The Mon. closest to May 24th- That was Victoria's B'day.
We also have holidays on: Jan 1st- New years day,
Good Friday & Easter Monday
!st Mon of Aug.
Labour Day (same as yours)
Thanksgiving ( same day as your Columbus Day)
Nov 11- Rememberance day
Dec 25&26 Xmas & boxing day.
That's it only 11, but what can you do. We are trying to have them declear Feb 15 as Flag Day.
