In Manners and Etiquette in CanadaThe stereotype of the “polite Canadian” may be cliché, but it relates with their reality.

Canadians are friendly, full of honesty, sensitivity, empathy and humility in their relationship

with friends and strangers. They respect the privacy and individualism of others. Therefore, in

doing a business with Canadian, people should obey and understand some rules which fit in to

broader Canadian society. When meeting Canadians for the first time, they shake hands to

introduce themselves. It is considered extremely rude and offensive to not shake hands with

someone after they extend their hand to you. In Canada, maintaining a friendly workplace

where everyone acts as if they’re on the same level (even if they’re obviously not) is

exceedingly common these days. Moreover, Canadians are strict about time and schedules.

Lateness of more than 15 minutes is considered rude, and apology or explanation will be

expected. Most Canadians with full-time careers work of 9-to-5 job do not appreciate being

disturbed at work.
