Canadian Memes For Citizens and Appreciators Alike

There are tons of stereotypes about Canadians, but the ones that are most commonly heard are that the Northerners pepper their sentences with «Ehs» and that they are extremely courteous and considerate. Both are true. I learned this while attending University of Toronto many years ago, as a way to escape my parents here in Brooklyn and still attend school in a city that boasts a diverse population – and equally diverse food. My first day walking around the neighborhood of my dorm, I was impressed by how clean and quiet the streets were. No litter. And weirdly, no jaywalkers. But strangest of all was that as I walked down Dundas street, the people who walked by me would say «Good morning!» and smile in earnest. The first time I thought nothing of the occurrence. They must have been freakishly kind people. But it kept happening. It was unnerving, really. I began to feel pressured to say hello to every person who crossed my path. The sweetness quickly turned into stress, and I happily powerwalked back to the solace of my dorm. The startling experience was just my first taste of classic Canadian behavior. I soon learned the ins and outs of Tim Hortons, how profusely Canadians apologize, and, of course, the joy of poutine. This meme collection goes out to all the Canucks that became my friends, and all the rest.
