Yes, it is indeed more of a religious than a historical thing over here. But no, we don't necessarily have turkey on Thanksgiving. There is no special, traditional Thanksgiving meal at all - you just eat a fine Sunday meal, or not even that, it really depends.
It's possible that the mass is more religious... "hardcore" closer to the Vatikan, as you said, after all, they're even more extreme in Italy and Spain, and parts of France... or maybe it's just that Catholicism is so old here, it's existed for over a thousand years so I suppose it has kind of digged deeper.
