Hokkaido Residents' Day: July 17th
July 17th is the day that Matsuura Takeshiro, who is said to have named Hokkaido, proposed the name "Hokkaido" to the Meiji government in 1869. Therefore, July 17th was established as "Hokkaido Residents' Day" as a day to reexamine the value of Hokkaido and think about its future.
