Than the US, but Australia doesn't have the various "Xmasized" holidays from from different cultures. It's known as Christmas/Xmas and they are known as Christmas Trees here. Meh fighting against that makes you look silly here. I don't mind them being Christmas trees, but I'm not on the forefront of the religious/culture wars.
On a side note people here are always complaining about the commercialisation of Christmas, which to me seems silly because as a festival it always was.
