To find out more about the Canadian lifestyle and its quirks, Bored Panda spoke with Casie Stewart, a Canadian award-winning content creator who has been documenting her life since 2005 via her blog ‘This is My Life.’ Her social entrepreneurship and dedication to social media won her 2016 Voice Pioneer at the Canadian Screen Awards by The Canadian Academy of Cinema & Television. Today, Casie is represented by the National Speakers Bureau of Canada.
Casie told Bored Panda that Canadian humor is pretty sarcastic and light-hearted. “We like to make jokes and it's true, we say 'sorry' a lot,” she said. “I grew up in Canada and I absolutely love living here. We have a great quality of life! My home is Toronto and my favorite city in Canada,” Casie told us.

When asked about her favourite Canadian cultural quirks, Casie said that one funny thing is “that ‘yeah, no’ means no, and ‘yeah, no for sure’ means yes,” she laughed. “We also spell things a bit different here than in the USA, ex honour, humour, and favourite all have a U,” Casie added.
The weather is also a big thing when it comes to Canadian life. “In Canada, we have 4 distinct seasons so we get to experience a really hot summer, beautiful Autumn colours (and fashion!), then a cold snowy winter, plus the spring where everything comes back to life,” she explained.
It took me, an American, WAY too long to realize they are referring to hockey. I thought Canada had some kind of awesome bloodbath gladiator deathmatch sport that I didn't know about.
Deer are dumber than a box of hammers and will jump directly in front of your car when they weren't even near the road to begin with.
Canadian Geese seem nice in the UK, obviously jet lagged after migrating.
Well somebody has never been on a morning run around a park that has a goose in it. But then they are nice, but only in comparison to say living in eastern Ukraine at the moment.

Geese are violent murder machines that can fly. They never give up
Canadian geese have invaded where I live (Southern California) and we fear them accordingly.
Same here (Germany). I had a meeting with clients where they hammered against the windows. The conquered a lot of picnic places and parks. There is no getting rid of them (invasive species).
Load More Replies... I once walked through a park full of them one morning, and one of them had issues but I made it out alive.
Hoping you get a movie deal out the trauma story, but nobody will believe it.
Load More Replies... I used to live in a condo that had a fairly large field behind it. I looked outside one day and saw 20-30 Canadian geese in the field. They were all honking and flapping their wings in unison. It was one of the creepiest things I've ever seen. It felt like I was in a Hitchcock movie.
We have a park near us they used to land in. Hundreds of them. Our previous dog lived to chase them.

What's up with Canadian swans then? They are so nice here? @-@

I live in Michigan. I don't "hate" a lot of things, but I DESPISE Canada geese... my neighbor had a dog that lost an eye to one, they poop all over my yard, they are constantly making noise, they crushed a duck nest that my wife and I were watching (9 eggs)... f them.
I also live in Michigan. So to get back at MDOT for cancelling my company contract, for the last 3 weeks, I brought 3 20 pounds sacks of goose food so they would s**t all over the place. F**k you MDOT

Cobra Chickens are definitely more frightening than a wolf or bear. I have been within 10 feet of all three, at one point or another, and the only one that WON'T run away from you is the goddamned Cobra Chickens
I'm going to give the geese the appreciation they need. " Thank you geese for casing the Karens and their demon spawn"
This. We don't want them either, they just show up whether we like it or not.

Don't mess with those Canadian geese. They are extremely sensitive and they get mad very quickly. They are fast and can also probably outrun you.
If Canadians knew I feed these nasty, invasive creatures safe table scraps every week down by the harbor. That would convince them that Americans are indeed insane.
I literally had a bear bigger than that in my yard today. If you leave them alone, they leave you alone. (So Cal, not Canada)
We’re not real keen on the geese. Besides the aggression, they make an incredible mess which is hard to clean. I haven’t had time to wash my car for a while. There have been numerous rainstorms including the tail end of a hurricane. Where the goose shat on my car is still there. It’s been over 2 months.
These cobra chickens are scary AF whenever it's on spouse and child protection patrol. They will just attack if you look at them.
No no no, they're in America too. Apparently they're FEDERALLY protected. One died at my partners warehouse that was run by a CANADIAN company. No one was allowed to move or even TOUCH the dead goose...
Canadian Geese better known as cobra chickens... That's our bad side coming out as we're so damn polite... COBRA CHICKENS...
Just going for a walk at the lake, minding my own business and one literally ran up to me and hissed in my face.
We have Canada Geese, white geese, and many varieties of duck. They seem to all get along fine, with each other, and the people that fish in the ponds, the runners and walkers that use the trails, the people that come to feed them. They are such a tourist draw that there are duck crossing signs so they don't get hit by cars going from one pond to another. And the police have absolutely held traffic for them before.
They çan be great watch dogs though, nothing gets past them and they're damned térritoríal!
We get Canadian geese in our school as a pit stop to the south for winter… it’s terrifying
We have a plentiful amount of Canadian Geeese in Colorado. Ppl r so dumb here they will feed them all year. These mf geese won't leave ever or migrate they stay year round and get feed by the freaking crazy goose lady 3 times a day.
we have non canadian gesse in the USA and i can confirm this is true
Having been chased by a flock of them and then having to go out of my way to avoid them on my daily walk to work, I, too, am scared of Canadian geese in the US
Feel this, I live deep in Maine and these buggers the the things of nightmares.
My husband and I live on a lake. The Canada geese invade our yard sometimes daily. As they leave such a mess I try to shoo them away. Last year I chased them with with my lawn mower but they went in a corner by our boathouse. I got off the mower and tried to get them to the area where they could get back in the water. The male hissed and hissed and lunged at me! Protecting his two babies I presume. Finally they went back in the water, but I've not chased them again. They can be very aggressive!
As a Swede I agree. Geese and turkeys are the meaniest there is (and some cats).
I live in the U.S and geese are no joke. Mean little f*****s they are.
Story time for those who want to read. Partner is a wack job at times. One day at a food basics, we are waiting for sister in-law to come out when our partner just stepped out of the van. We see them slowly walk up looking like he's going to catch something and then watch them shake there head. They come back in and we asked "what was that about?" Our partner looked over and said "oh that? Wanted revenge (has been attacked by geese really often) and take home a new pet." We asked if they where genuinely serious and their response was "hm? Yeah i was... But i didn't want to make any orphans" and nudges towards a goose walking up to it's eggs.
You don't want to see one when you're camping, believe me. I had nightmares for months.
Load More Replies... I remember my brother telling my mom he needed a new tire for his bike because a goose bit and ripped a large hole in his back tire. Beware of the cobra chicken!
As an American, I fear those evil murder honkers. We have bears and wolves too, which I have a healthy respect for, but those damn geese; they're terrifying. Please take them back. They have well overstayed their welcome and I'm tired of living in fear when I go out in public
Canadian women are on another level. Picture: Hugo Lorini
Sure they're not Geordie lasses? Oh, hang on, they're wearing too many clothes...
Driving unplowed curvy hilly backroads going home at midnight with snow deep enough on the road that it sweeps over the front of your car and over the windshield in an endless opaque wave, with the side window open so you can actually see anything, in near whiteout snowfall and well below freezing temperature, all while driving fast enough to keep your momentum to get over the hills, but slow enough not to drive off the road into a ditch, and knowing that if you mess up and get stuck, there probably won't be another vehicle along for hours and you're in for a real long walk. Yeah, real winter in the country is fun.
same thing at the beach in Australia if you eat hot potato chips and the seagulls notice.
That's actually pretty accurate, except that the Facebook part should read "We know you bought a toaster yesterday. Here are some 20 ads for toaster ovens if you wished to buy 5 more"
The transport trucks in Ontario are notorious for anything before 10 am. You learn not to follow close as an entire car made of snow could come off their roof in 1 go

Sooooo from this I've learned it's very cold, and expensive... and geese are a nuisance?
Yup, pretty much. Geese are insanely protective of their nests and territory… they will not hesitate to attack. Our summers are nice but this winter is expected to be a particularly brutal one. Expensive has been a recent thing for the most part… thanks COVID. Hey though, free health care and it is a beautiful country.

Grew up on the border, and this holds true for many in the US. Ah, I'm nostalgic for my childhood now. But not the frostbite that one time. ;-P
I grew up near the Mexican border on the U.S. side. When I think of the border, I immediately think of the one the U.S. shares with Mexico. How interesting.

My ex is from Canada and I wish i could live there with him. Shame I made some poor choices and now I'm stuck in England with no future... ex is currently travelling in vietnam then NZ. A year working in Oz...i wish i had the courage. I'd have traveled anywhere with him. Be careful what you settle for. The advertisement of "life" isn't worth it or anywhere near fun. See the world, learn and experience, life is for living. Don't be like me because you value tradition. Do.what.you.want! :-D
No offense meant, but I think a psychiatrist would have a lot of fun analyzing that message. Lots of intermixed complex emotions and repression.

First! The number of repeats in this thread is extreme. But topic/pics/etc great

The australia one is correct, as an australian SUCK IT UP AND DEAL WITH THE HEAT
While some of these are hilarious, how anyone with even a partially functioning brain could think there are mountains in Saskatchewan, defies belief. I did lol - literally - at some of these. There are many more out there I’m sure. After being raised in the UK until my teens, living in Winterpeg for years and now living in ND via Chicago, my heart is Canadian. Love Canada and her people!
I'm a Nigeria ive heard so much of Canada is one of my favourite places to visit
Snow, yes that very uniquely Canadian experience. You certainly don't see that stuff in any other country in the world.
I would love to see more posts on how others deal with winter and add to list of how to enjoy such beautiful season. Fondue and mulled wine in many parts of Europe, etc.

Don't mix-up ALL OF Canada with the Roman Catholics, thank you. Like Andy Frobig said above: Want to conserve paper? Write a list of countries that didn't commit genocide.
