Welcome to Canada, where the winters last 9 months and "sorry" is a reflex, not a choice.
We speak 4 languages: English. Français. Hockey. And Sorry.
"Sorry" = hello. "Sorry" = excuse me. "Sorry" = you bumped into ME but I'm apologizing anyway. And "double-double" is a complete sentence at Tim Hortons.
Meanwhile:
• Everyone acts like -30°C is "not that bad" and goes outside in a hoodie
• Geese have more attitude than New Yorkers and will absolutely fight you in a parking lot
• Somebody's uncle is still wearing shorts in February saying "this is nothing compared to '82"
Welcome to Canada — where the politeness is mandatory, the healthcare is free, and we measure distance in Tim Hortons per kilometer.
P.S. If you cut someone off in traffic, they'll give you a disappointed head shake that haunts you for weeks. That's the Canadian way!
