Reaction To British Manners That Are RUDE in Canada

This is my reaction to British Manners That Are RUDE in Canada

In this video I react to a Canadian living in the UK who discusses manners that British people have, that might be considered rude in Canada.

When you find out that the guy helping you in the hardware store doesn't work there, you're in Canada.

Friends and family definitely banter. Canadians have a very dry sarcastic sense of humor.

[kalcuthbert]

She's wrong about the banter thing in Canada... working class guys rip on eachother all day every day.

Bluenoser here, I know she's young, but here in the east coast of Canada bathroom is more used for home and washrooms are more used for public. It's not being more posh, just describing the building it's in.

In Canada we shit talk each other all the time especially when playing sports or hockey it's very much a thing we do in canada

[agirlnamedsaskia]

I’m from the east coast and can confirm that in Newfoundland people (women specifically) will use the phrase m’love (my love). It’s said in a very endearing way and shows friendliness. You can go to a Timmie’s, place your order, and have the counter person reply “is that everything m’love” and then tell you the price of your order 😊

The "C" word is a big no no in Canada. 95% of the places you go if you call someone a "C" word jokingly or even just say it out loud at no one in particular, someone within earshot will be hugely offended. I watch a lot of British movies and television, so it doesn't bother me at all. But I would say that with about 1/3 of our population, it is about the worst word you could possibly utter and is the epitome of vulgarity.

I see the humour in it, most will not see anything funny about it at all. Nope. The "C" word in Canada, that's a fighting word.

I don't think of washroom as being "posh." I'm not sure if people in Canada think of it as a "posh" term. In Canada it's just the generic term that we use for "toilets" when we are out of the house. Generally, we only say "bathroom" when we are in a home since there's generally a bathtub or a shower in the bathroom.

Banter is done here in canada but it's with close friends.

Narrator sounds like she has come from one particular place in Canada and has never explored much of the rest. Several of her observations don't apply to much of the country.

[wafflesca]

In Canada in grade school you would only ask the teacher to use the washroom, if you said can I use the toilet everyone would take the piss out of you.

[artharrison]

She’s young and you can tell by the way she says “Keyeneda” she must be from Ontario. And she didn’t have grandparents from the UK or watch British comedy.

[JonInCanada]

Just a couple of things, English Canada may not have colourful language/phrases when swearing, but as someone from Montreal, I can tell you we French do. Secondly, in the Maritimes, especially Newfoundland, calling someone Love is rather common.

[georgeg]

Asking for the ‘toilets’ is less rude in French speaking Canada (I’m in Montreal) it can be in some cases but it is more normal here.

[davidedwards]

Washroom is used more. Banter is very common in canada.

[StormBat]

Men in Canada love to banter! I don't know what she's saying.

[scottyb]

I feel like this girl knows nothing about Canada, banter is huge in Canadian culture

[karenpower]

She's making it seem like Canadians are "posh" and we're not. It's just the words we use.

[shirleydesrochers]

This little girl is off her rocker. She is certainly not speaking for the majority.

[marcwright]

Friends or "buddies" typically banter with each other or in a relaxed working environment, sometimes families do banter, but yes we don't typically banter with strangers 5:34
