Canadians don't typically interact with people based fundamentally on
money. It never occurs to us to build relationships that way. That's a

Most Canadians also rarely feel the need to bolster their egos by
tossing cash at people. That too is an American thing.

Canadians aren't cheap, Canadians are just different.

lol, canadians are also good comedians ;-)

as an aside, the worst tippers are stingy people away from home, people who
know they won't be seen in a restaurant again, and take it out on the
waiter or waitress. i suppose boorish americans tip less in canada than
they would hat home.
