Hi everyone,
I’d love to hear your thoughts on those quirky habits or phrases we have that we assume everyone else does too—until a non-Canadian point out that it’s uniquely Canadian!
For instance, things like leaving our doors unlocked, apologizing to inanimate objects, or instinctively knowing what a "double-double" is can seem totally normal to us. I remember a friend from the U.S. was baffled by how orderly we line up at Tim Hortons!
What’s something you didn’t realize was a “Canadian thing” until someone brought it to your attention? I’m especially curious about those little gems that might catch people off guard!
Thanks
