    LIFE STYLE

    Canada's culture is a funny thing. Many people in Canada maintain that Canada doesn't really have a culture at all, but borrows heavily from French, British and American culture to create own sense of identity. There are aspects in Canadian society that can be said are uniquely Canadian, such as hockey or our entertainment scene.
    Being polite and courteous to a fault is something that is attributed to Canadians. They also have a reputation for being level-headed thinkers, and they certainly love peace and would prefer to argue than fight physically.
