Canada calendar - "family day" holiday, starting 2008

[Knox, Matt]

First of all, thank you Luigi for the previous fix regarding Remembrance day in the Canadian calendar.

I just realized there will be a new holiday in the province of Ontario in Canada (which impacts the TSX) starting in 2008 called "family day" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_Day). Yes, it is a little silly, but I'm not one to complain about extra holidays :) .  Both bond markets and the TSX will be closed for this new holiday (http://www.tsx.com/en/market_activity/market_hours.html). I don't have a link confirming that bond markets (ie. the "settlement" calendar) will be closed, but I know that they will. This holiday will be on the third Monday in February every year (February 18th in 2008).

I'm a big fan of QuantLib, I think it is amazing work that you guys are doing. Thanks for everything.

- Matt
