On the tenth day of Minute Women Christmas, Linnea and Grace gave to me... lots of drunken partying!
Tibb's Eve is celebrated by Canadians across the country as an excuse to get out of the house, away from the family for a bit, and share a couple of brews with friends. But there was a time when Tibb's Eve was just a turn of phrase, referencing a made up saint who did some pretty un-saintly things. Celebrate the day that never happens about a woman who never existed with us!

Minute Women is your weekly dose of Canadian history and corny 90s nostalgia. We are best friends Grace McNutt and Linnea Swinimer and we are on a mission to tell the untold stories behind the iconic Canadian Heritage Minutes. Along the way, we uncover the funny, weird, and downright terrifying stories left out of Canada’s national history.
Did you know John A. Macdonald's younger brother was murdered in a freak gin incident? Or that Sandford Fleming was going to call standard time "cosmic time"? Or that Governor Frontenac was a legendary jerk?
Well, neither did we! Join us to learn more! A not-so-proud part of our national heritage.
