I've never been to Canada, but from a single piece of second-hand information I received from my uncle who went to grad school in Toronto, I would like to visit someday. He said when a pedestrian steps off the curb to cross the street, traffic comes to a halt.

Step off the curb anywhere in the U.S., you test fate and the odds are against you.

It's been a few years since he told me that. I wonder if things have changed.
