20+ Photos That Show What Real Life in Canada Is All About

Perhaps you are aware of the friendliness and unlimited politeness of the Canadian people. Those who come from other countries are surprised to hear that the word “sorry” is among the most commonly used words in everyday conversations here. And, of course, we’ve all heard about the famous maple syrup, but what about maple chips, maple bacon, and maple bread?

We at Bright Side collected photographic proof that Canada can bravely claim to be the coziest and most hospitable country.

14. One of the pupils lost their fallen-out tooth at school and the head teacher deputy wrote an official letter to the Tooth Fairy:

15. Yes, that’s a cougar lying on a car’s roof.

17. “Had a super Canadian moment yesterday. Canada geese using the crosswalk. We all stopped to let them cross.”

18. “Spent the day exploring the park, where a Vancouver artist spent most of 2020 quietly installing natural sculptures in the woods.”

“The sculptures are all made of twig and twine. They’re mostly tucked away off the main paths, hidden along smaller trails. This is Lilith, the Sleeping Fairy, in the second photo.”

19. “Had a visitor this morning.”

20. “I went to a wax museum in Canada and they thought this was Beyoncé. I’m hurt.”

21. Not only can it be too cold, but it can get too hot in Canada.
