This is a non exhaustive (and non serious) list about typical Canadian behaviors, applying mostly to Eastern Canadians.

• You grab coffee at Tim Horton’s, and nowhere else. Several times a day.

• You don’t like to be compared to Americans because you feel superior.

• You have relatives in Europe.

• If you were born in Quebec and your mothertongue is French, people from France will still not understand you when you talk.

• You call the Canadian one dollar coin a Loonie.

• You’re very tolerant and openminded, and in favor of LGBT rights, even if you’re not part of the scene.

• If you’ve travelled once to Paris, London or Greece, you say you’ve been to «Europe».

• Flying from Eastern Canada to Europe is actually cheaper than flying from Eastern Canada to Western Canada.

• You’re used to see mooses on highways. And to eat them in a burger or in a soup.

• You most likely own your own kayak.

• You need to go to a special store to get strong alcohol (like in Sweden).

• You call people from Newfoundland «newfies».

• You call winter days with minus 15 degrees mild.

• You eat “Poutine”. Not the Russian president, but fries with a brown sauce on it. And you like it (see picture below).
