We asked expats and digital nomads what they appreciate the most about the local culture in Canada. They wrote...
"Expatriates in Canada appreciate the country's warm, welcoming culture that encompasses an enormous range of cultural experiences. Canadians are generally very open and accepting of other cultures, and expatriates often find the Canadian people to be friendly and helpful. Additionally, expats are often enamored with the incredible natural beauty Canadian is so well known for. Expats also enjoy the many cultural activities available such as art galleries, theatrical performances, sporting events, and festivals. Furthermore, Canada's excellent healthcare and education systems are particularly attractive to expats looking to stay in the country long-term," remarked another expat who made the move to Canada.
"The slower pace of life and the driving, how helpful people are and how much safer I feel," explained one expat living in Lethbridge, Canada.
