A Canadian Culture Moment
I went snorkling near La Paz today (in Baja, Mexico), and gave a ride into town to a Brazilian girl who has been studying in Kamloops, BC for the last two years. We talked about some of the culture shock she experienced.
“Canadians are so polite.” She said. Then she laughed and told me that she and her friend had figured out the easiest way to get a Canadian to say “I’m Sorry.”
Just step on a Canadian’s foot.
Warning: Do not attempt this experiment outside of Canada. Results may vary.
That is too funny. Not the main point, but I live in Kamloops. Maybe I’ll step on someone’s foot tomorrow.
