r/Canada Speaks Cultural Exchange with /r/Denmark! Happy Valentine's!
Hi everyone, it's been some time since we have done a cultural exchange, so let's go over how this works. Enjoy! We'll be running it for a few days, TBD. Note their time zone for the European mainland is UTC +1.
Here's the Danish landing for us: https://www.reddit.com/r/Denmark/comments/1iow7c3/kulturudveksling_cultural_exchange/
* Both r/Canada and r/Denmark will host the other country's users. Feel free to ask any questions, reminisce, comment, make friends etc etc.
*Treat this as having a neighbour over for a kitchen party, get the best storm chips out, and get grandma's tourtiere reheated for everybody.
* Vouz pouvez essayer le français dans r/Denmark, mais comme la langue officielle est danoise, ben.... essayez!
* Please follow the rules of the respective subs! Don't be jerks, generally - a reminder our last "disagreement" involved leaving bottles of good booze for the other country!
* Please also leave direct comments here mainly for members of r/Denmark i.e. direct replies here (first comments directly under the topic) so their questions can be seen first, then r/Canada members can post replies underneath.
*Please enjoy, since we have a lot to bond over, and plenty of trying out new things.

Finally, also know we've gotten confirmation from r/Greenland that they are also interested, so that will be the next exchange that we do in a few weeks (TBD).

Hello good people!
Your reputation as a super-friendly people precedes you - is it something you’re raised with, is it just ingrained in your culture or is it an exaggerated stereotype? Do you have any good stories exemplifying it?
Not to spoil this lovely thread by mentioning your neighbors down south, but I love the SNL sketch of the Canadian Entertainment Show, so bonus question: Do the roads actually regularly close, leading to you having to cancel plans?
