Reading: Canadian food customs and etiquette Canadian immigration strategy: Canadians are warm and hospitable. Inviting friends and relatives to eat at home is more friendly than going to a restaurant. When guests come to the host's house, the hostess will arrange seats at dinner, or put a card with the guest's name in front of each seat in advance. There is a more casual way to eat in Canada, which is buffet or buffet. After the host puts all the food on the table, the guests can take a big plate (or a gift from the host) and their favorite food. You can leave the table and sit in another room, so that guests and hosts, guests and guests can have more time to talk. Generally speaking, Canada invites friends to dinner without giving gifts. But if you go to relatives and friends for the weekend or stay for a few days, you should bring some gifts to your hostess, such as a bottle of wine and a box of candy. After leaving the host's house, you should write a letter to the hostess immediately after you get home, telling her that you have arrived home safely and thanking her for her warm hospitality. It is generally necessary to visit relatives and friends and bring some gifts on holidays.

Canadians are not as casual as Americans. Most receptions are held in hotels and clubs. If you are invited to a Canadian's home, you can send a bouquet of flowers to the hostess in advance or take it with you. But don't send Bai Baihe. In Canada, Bai Baihe is only used for funerals. Open the door and let the people behind go first. This kind of etiquette will be appreciated. Smile and say Hi to passers-by or strangers in the elevator: hi is a friendly attitude.

Avoid talking or arguing loudly in public places. Even if there is a conflict in public places, such as a car accident, try to stay calm. It is considered rude to talk in another language in front of outsiders. Staring at people is also extremely impolite. New immigrants should keep calm and not overreact to the attitude of Canadians. Many seemingly racist reactions may just be due to incomprehension, curiosity or surprise. Don't think that you will be offended immediately, and don't jump to the conclusion of racial discrimination.
