I‘d like to tell you more about the differences between Chinese culture and Canadian culture. I found it easy to make friends in China. Why? Because there are many people in China. You can meet people and talk to them easily. Don't you agree with me?‎ In China, people often talk about how old they are even among adults! But In Canada, people never ask others this question. In China, people can visit each other without making phone calls first. In Canada, you often need to call the people before your visit. In Canada, when you meet people, you try to keep talking to them. In China it's all right to keep silent. There are more cultural differences! Don't worry if you make a mistake! If you make a mistake, just say, "Sorry! "Other people will always excuse you! That's just the way it is in China and Canada.‎
