Canada and culture?

• Hi,
  
  i was wondering what are typical aspects that can be considered to the Canadian culture? I mean, typical food, customs, behaviour, art, etc....I really do not know any famous aspects. But i assume that canada has its own culture right? If so, would like to know about that.

• Canadian culture

  As I´ve lived around the world, I have been asked this question numerous times and in reality it´s quite difficult to answer as we are a very new country made up of immigrants. Part of our culture is just that, we have a million cultures and every possible type of food your heart desires. There are obviously the stereotypical Canadian cultural aspects like Hockey and Skiing and hiking and biking. We are usually known as very polite, if not too polite. We speak English and French. We don´t really have any canadian dishes except in Quebec there is ´poutine´, which is really yummy - fries withe melted cheese and gravy.

• Canadian music

  Still there is Celine Dion (and René). That have invaded the world.
  Less famous in the world but superstars in France, Garou, Natacha St Pierre (represented France at the eurovision contest). Can't wait for Jacques villeneuve!!!
  Not to forget Avril Lavigne ^^... Canada is well represented in terms of music for a country with so few inhabitants.
  
  Not to forget the "Just for laugh" shows.
