J'atteste l'usage de fin de semaine au Québec, mais week-end est utilisé également.

Et je confirme aussi que "fin de semaine" est beaucoup utilisé au Québec.

En France (pas au Quebec) je deconseille fortement d'employer "weekend" et "fin de semaine" de maniere interchangeable. "Fin de semaine" en France couvre une periode vague recouvrant samedi et dimanche, mais souvent aussi vendredi et parfois jeudi.

Pour moi la fin de semaine ne contient que des jours ouvrés (jeudi et vendredi), c'est-à-dire distincts du week-end.

Au Québec, "fin de la semaine" va signifier jeudi/vendredi et "fin de semaine" désigne samedi/dimanche (plus congé férié s'il y a, par example "une fin de semaine de trois jours")
