1) They have a Maple Leaf on their flag.
2) Canadian Rozzers are called Monunties.
3) All Canadians are either serving, past or future lumberjacks. Babies get given a baby sized axe before leaving the maternity ward and all Canadian toddlers (by law) have to chop down a tree, before they are allowed to walk in public.
4) You'll get a free meal in ANY Canadian eatery if you stand in the middle of the room and say in a VERY loud voice "I'm really enjoying my time in Americas 52nd State.
5) The Canadian Government monitors everything on the internet - people who post numpty questions on internet forums are fed to grizzly bears at their point of entry to Canada. Posters who's original posts on threads make no sense due to poor grammar are brought back to life after been eaten by bears and are then fed to beavers.
6) The formal spelling of the country is Canadia (not Canada), hence they are known as Canadians. When you arrive at your point of entry in Canadia, you will be greeted by a Canadian passport official who will say "Welcome to Canada, do you have anything to declare" to which your response must me "Yes !!!!!!, I declare that you don't even know the name of your own country". This will always elicit really SPECIAL attention for you.0 -
Toronto Raptors are NBA Champs, it is is a long time since the Maple Leafs won the Stanley Cup
You may need a good understanding of French in some parts
They use dollars as their currency
They have a fondness for anything royal
They drive on the right
Tim Hortons is the best coffee
Knowing this type of info stands you in good stead when being questioned on entering the country.
Have a great time0 -

Canada is the second biggest country on Earth. (Only Russia is bigger.)
From St John's on Newfoundland to Victoria on Vancouver Island by ferry and road is 4411 miles, and the shortest route passes through part of the USA. https://goo.gl/maps/jvvqt3DQ3fdBwc8u7
The Canadian Rockies are extremely scenic, especially the Icefields Parkway between Lake Louise and Jasper."Such an enormous country, you realize when you cross it" - Jack Kerouac0
