While most prefer to visit the country for its freezing weather, most regret not being around for the summer. Summer in the country only lasts for 79 days, and that’s what makes it fantastic.

This is a topic that most people who travel to Canada do not know, and that’s a big mistake.

Although some may view this as a stereotype, Canadians are and will always be sweet as their maple syrup.

Everyone is nice, polite, and kind, regardless of whether you’re someone they know or not. They have the hobby of apologizing for even the smallest things and saying kind words like “excuse me” and “please.

We view this as an extremely adorable behaviour that all tourists should adapt to during their stay.
