Every country has something that people associate it with the most. For Italy, it's probably espresso and pasta. When we think about Australia, snakes making their way into your living room probably pop up in our minds. The U.S., in its own right, reminds us of the stereotypes about fast food.
But what connotations does Canada evoke? Polite people and universal healthcare? Freezing winters and hockey? We'd hate to reduce any country to such simplicity, so we've collected some images that might paint a picture from all sides: its people, its nature, and just general awesomeness that happens only in Canada.

So don’t cut Sesame Street because too many of you still desperately need it.” 😂

I'm doing this a lot currently. We have North, Central, and South America. Calling us U.S. citizens, narrows the blame to us, which is correct.

A little over 40 million people live in Canada, and in 2024, it still ranked 15th in the World Happiness Report. Although that's pretty good, it's a slip two places down from last year. For young people, however, life doesn't seem to be so good, as Canada placed 58th in the happiness ranking for people under 30.
Older people, however, think that living in Canada is the bee's knees, as in the category of happiness of those 60 years and older, Canada was in 8th place. Still, Canada ranks high among other countries in metrics such as racial equality and quality of life, as in 2023, The U.S. News placed Canada 2nd among 87 countries for racial equality and 3rd for quality of life.

Life in Canada is pretty good. And how can it be bad when there are so many unique things to appreciate? If you thought that Canada was "just America, but colder," you probably need to think again. Canada has some things that make it pretty unique, so let's go over some of them, shall we?
First, the amazing nature of Canada. Banff National Park is one of the most famous nature spots in all of Canada. With its turquoise glacier-fed Lake Louise, the park offers skiing, hiking, canoeing, yoga, and other recreational activities all year round. While many people opt for Niagara Falls or go see the Aurora Borealis in Manitoba, Banff is an almost out-of-this-world beautiful place that offers much more.

Canada is famous for making maple syrup, but did you know that more than 80% of the world's syrup is made in Canada? What's more, 90% of Canadian maple syrup comes from the province of Quebec alone.
The Quebecois have a unique dish they make with maple syrup, called "pouding chômeur," which translates to "unemployment pudding." It's simply biscuit dough poached in maple syrup caramel, and it originated during the Great Depression when people were looking to make something sweet with limited resources.

If you've ever had Hershey's chocolate in Canada, you'd notice that it tastes a bit different than it does in America.

The American version is more cheesy in flavor because, according to Hershey's senior chocolate specialist Gina Shroy, Americans like it that way.
"Canadian chocolate is higher in fat, and it is a larger particle size, but Americans tend to gravitate towards a little bit more of a grittier or even cheesier flavor," she explained.

Urban Owl In Vancouver, BC
My boyfriend always gets fooled by those fake owls on buildings so when he was walking to 7-Eleven for a midnight snack he had to take a double-take when he saw this fella. Perched right on the intersection of two main roads, wasn't bothered by us walking by or by the cars. People walked by and didn't even notice it! The owl turned its head to watch them walk by but they couldn't be the wiser. I was surprised to see it sitting so close to the sidewalk. There's some enormous rats living in that "community garden" and the alleyway, so I assume it was hunting. I have no idea what kind of owl it is, I was thinking barred, but it doesn't look quite the same?

I Completed My 600th Donation At Canadian Blood Services

(Also, they were always incredible nice and said that moral supports are just as important as those who donate.)

I looked at the Reddit thread, because I was curious - you'd have to be 109 years old to reach 600 blood donations in Canada so I figured there was plasma or bone marrow in there too. He says: "I’ve been donating blood plasma at Canadian Blood Services. Since it isn’t whole blood, I’m allowed to go once a week (that’s the Canadian Blood Services rules)." Either way, super impressive!

In my country we can donate only 3 or 4 times a year. It would take a lot of time to donate this amount here.
Parmeisan 9 months ago
84 days for a woman in Canada - roughly every 3 months, so yeah, 4 times a year. But for men it's 56 days - eight weeks, so 6.5 times per year. That would still be 92 years, plus minimum age is 17, and he's clearly not 109 years old. So it must include plasma or bone marrow donations. (PS. If you're wondering, the male/female discrepancy is because women have lower iron levels and it takes longer to replenish the iron.)

Lastly, let's tackle the Canadian weather. Those who've never been there think that Canada is probably always cold, icy, and snowy. And while winters can get brutal in the most northern cities, it's not winter all year round. In Toronto, it gets up to 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius) during summer. In Vancouver, the temperatures don't drop below freezing even during winter, and summers get as hot as 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius).

Never Been More Proud To Be Canadian
StrangeOne 9 months ago (edited)
For those who are confused as what's going on, this is the day after a rain or snow melt, when the temperature rises one day and freezes overnight, so by morning there is ice everywhere. It's very dangerous to drive and walk anywhere. "Black ice" is all over. That is ice that is so clear and smooth it looks like there's nothing there until you step on it and instantly fall on your a*s. This is the best thing to do on a day you'll be likely excused from going to school if it's open, unless the schools decided to be kind and close. Still a bit dangerous because you never know if some idiot decided it's good idea to drive on roads like that.
JB 9 months ago
Expecting this tomorrow. Two inches of snow last night, +3C today so it’s melting rivulets down the road but unlikely all the snow will melt. Gonna be -5C overnight, freezing the runoff to thin sheets of ice and black ice. Still, looking on the bright side, only three more months of winter in Alberta.

US vertical red-yellow-green (red on top) is fine until you have additional lights; turn lanes (one near me is solid or blinking green or yellow). not sure how to shape those though - maybe single arrow for yellow "caution" and double arrow for green?
