All Implemented Interfaces:
Function<Integer,LocalDate>, Predicate<Integer>, Observance
public class VictoriaDay extends Object implements Observance
Observance of Victoria Day - a federal Canadian public holiday on the last Monday in May preceding May 25, celebrated as the official birthday of the sovereign of Canada. The holiday, a distinctly Canadian observance (as opposed to other realms of the Crown), originally fell on Queen Victoria's actual birthday (May 24).

This holiday has been observed in Canada since 1845. It falls on the Monday between the 18th and the 24th (inclusive), and it is therefore always the next to last Monday of May.
