14. There are A LOT more 4-way stop intersections than you'd see in the US. A good example is this one
here. In the US, Templeton St - which appears to be a "collector"-grade street - would not have a stop sign, you would just go straight through. Only Garden Park Drive would have stop signs. I'm guessing this is a Canada-wide standard. I'm also guessing stuff like that is a major reason why Canadian auto death rates are lower than in the US.
Generally I found the drivers here to be pretty courteous. Not really many crazy drivers, at least not that I've seen yet. The only issue I had was one guy in a pickup truck beeped at me for being timid at making a right turn on red. But I didn't really have any good openings to make the turn.
15. The campus of the University of Manitoba is extremely boring.
