Speaking of Canada, I can kind of imagine Peter and Logan having a discussion at some point over the Golden Knights, mostly about whether or not it would be a good idea to have a team in Vegas or if Quebec City should've been given the new franchise. And, knowing Peter (who has a few football fans in his family and, as a result, has to put up with the Super Bowl and the Grey Cup whenever they're on), he's probably bring up the Las Vegas Posse, who were Las Vegas' CFL team. Mostly beause of how badly their first/only season went: Low attendences, including a home game against the Eskimos that ended up being played in Edmonton; ticket prices eventually going for cheap; terrible on-field performances (ending the season 5-13); a stadium more suitable for American football rather than Canadian; and, at one point, hiring someone who didn't know the Canadian national anthem to sing it. I'm not making that last one up, by the way.
Jeez, that was a terrible rendition of O Canada, or any national anthem anyway. Also, the Golden Knights were not named until November. Logan would probably argue that Canada should get another NHL team, since Hockey is really popular there and argue that Las Vegas is not a hockey city.
If they talk about it before November, then the two could talk about what a Vegas NHL team would be like, what it might be called or whether it would be a success or just another gimmick. If it's in or after November, then they might talk about whether it's a good name and if all the hype would be worth it. In both cases, they could both talk about whether Vegas is a good place for a hockey team, where the next Canadian franchise should be and if Gary Bettman should retire as NHL commish. To be brutally honest, I just wanted to share that video with everyone and see their reactions.

Originally, I had in my head that Peter (who normally goes back home to Toronto to celebrate) asks the principal if he could make a small Thanksgiving dinner for the Canadian students (even though there's only three and he's one of them) or, failing that, sneak into the kitchen after lessons and just make it anyway. Originally, the plan was for him to make a small meal for him, Karlee, Miyuki and (hopefully) Christian, seeing as they're his closest friends and he wants to do something nice for them (as well as show off his cooking prowess). But, a day or two before Thanksgiving, he remembers that there are a couple of other Canadian students at the school and so he decides to invite Logan and Julie, so they won't be left out. I don't know if Miyuki, Karlee and Christian will invite anyone to bump it up to eight, though; it might be a good idea to ask Reli, Corri and Polis if and when we get there.
As for how everything will be set up? I'm guessing that, of course, everyone will be eating in the cafeteria on a big table made up of two or four tables, depending on whether or not the tables actually have a bench on each side for people to sit on. Either way, the plan is to have four people on each side, with a giant tablecloth with all the food and plates on top. The food's going to be your standard affair; roast turkey, mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie, amongst other things. Also Kraft Dinner, although that's less a "Canadian Thanksgiving" thing and more a tradition with Peter and his family (mostly his father's side). I'm not sure about anything else, like entertainment, decorations or what they'll do after the meal but I'm pretty sure that we can all think of something as we get closer to it.
If you or anyone else have any better ideas, or anything you want to add on to this, feel free to share them.

Jake, Jeb and David finished their race, with Jake being the winner. Meanwhile, the police are getting ready to crash the party.
