Living in Canada
When moving to a new country, you must adjust to the culture. Be mindful and respectful of Canada’s customs and always remember to be kind to others.
In Canada, everyone is treated equally. Women, men, transgender people, straight and gay people all have equal rights, and discrimination of any kind is not tolerated.
Animals have rights too! Any form of animal abuse or neglect is a serious crime. Treat all animals (and nature) with respect.
It’s your responsibility to learn the rules and norms here.
When dining at a restaurant, it is customary in Canada to tip your server 15-20% on top of your bill.
Canada is a diverse “melting pot” of different ethnicities. Be respectful to all
Canada is rich in indigenous culture. Consider making an effort to learn about the many different native groups across the country
