    The worst mistake is thinking that you are coming to Canada to live the life you had in your previous country instead of starting a new life in Canada. You have to adapt to Canada. Canada is not going to change for you.

    If you’re not raised in Canadian winter you might not realize how important participating in winter sports are.

    Very good video, I wish I knew it all in 2014! Taxes, OMG this was such a nasty surprise when my grocery bill was higher than what I saw on a price tag. Funny that a lot of this is true in Switzerland as well. Switzerland hates overachievers but values team work. Always respect your team, help and be polite are absolute dealbreakers. Other aspects of cultural norm also works. Remember how Canadians were closed when it comes to personal topics, Swiss people are reserved and it takes time to get closer to them but they can also been direct when it comes to a civil state, at least this happened to me. Funny fact: when I arrived in Switzerland I had Canadian views of a distance and annoyed people by saying 80km is close, but when I explained I used to live in Canada they understand I need time to adjust. I lived 5yrs in Toronto and never get issues with winter, but I hate summer heat not winter.

    Never comment on someone's weight. I have had several people from other cultures think that is OK. Also, never ever ask or assume a woman is pregnant. Even if you are helping her deliver the baby never mention it. I was a little bloated once and a new Canadian thought it was sweet to mention that it is exciting to see my little baby bump showing. Huge mistake in Canada, huge. Other cultures think these comments are fine, in Canada it is very rude.
  • That’s what I looking for 😊 well it’s very helpful to me, thank ya

    I was born in Ottawa, and live in Toronto. When moving to another country, Canada, or anywhere, please don't say to the people who were born there, the following; "In my country we do it ..." "In my country we have..." "In my country ...." "In my country..." "In my country..." We understand you may have had to make a difficult choice to move to Canada, may have been forced to move because of war, or were looking for a new life, and new opportunities. When I keep hearing about how much better things were done, or life was, in a Newcomers birth country, it puts me in a defensive position, feeling like Canada will never be as good as what the Newcomer left. Please be sensitive. We open our arms to bring people into our country, to start a new life. Please don't complain about us, or compare us to what you left behind. Look to your future, and make a good life here.
