Mother's Day celebrations in Canada have a similar origin to that of the United States. It is said to have started in the early 20th century, when a woman named Julia Ward Howe (an American) started a campaign for a 'Mother's Day for Peace' after the American Civil War. Howe's idea didn't take off, but Anna Jarvis's did.
