Stereotypes of Canadians are found in several cultures, notably American culture. Although many of these stereotypes are exaggerated, some have some truth to them.
Stereotypes
Politeness
Many Canadians are viewed as overly polite,[1] saying "eh"[2] and "sorry"[3] a lot.
Winter
Winters in Canada are notoriously cold,[4] although a common misconception is that it is cold all year round.[5]
Food
Maple syrup[6] and poutine[7] are stereotypical Canadian foods. Tim Hortons is stereotypical in Canada, although it is not completely dominant.[8]
