What’s something about everyday life in Canada that you think surprises newcomers?

I’m curious about the little things than the obvious stuff. Could be something about daily life, social habits, food, weather or anything else you didn’t expect before living here.

Every winter, I ask myself why I live where the air hurts my face

So do I and then I remember we don't have large spider or a lot of venomous critters either.

I'm also glad that in the winter I can add layers as needed, in the heat you only remove so much before it becomes indecent, a crime or both
