RainbowButterfly Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I think my favourite has to be the idea that we're all living in igloos—though I have to admit, that would be pretty awesome! I've always loved building things like snow forts. Summer, however, would be a different story—maybe that's when we move into our beaver dams. (Kidding!) What do you think is the most hilarious misconception about Canadians? Quote Link to comment
Luckymadon Posted April 20, 2018 Report Share Posted April 20, 2018 One of the funniest misconceptions made about Canada and Canadians, especially by the Americans, is that Canada is always freezing cold. I understand why they would think this. We in Canada measure our temperature in Celsius while the Americans measure theirs in Farenheit. Imagine being in Niagra Falls, New York in the middle of summer. The temperature is 100° (Farenheit). On the other side of the Falls in Ontario, Canada the temperature is 31° (Celsius). To the Americans that is a 70° drop in temperature! Quote Link to comment
