I expect that most people in the industry are probably unaware of how actual Canadians tip. Frequently encountering Canadians is probably a pretty geographically dependent thing.


Can confirm from the south here. No idea about real Canadians but "Canadians" pretty much never tip in my area. I was shocked when I first heard this, but I have friends who have been in the industry for years and it seems to be nearly universal. I asked a couple black friends about it once and they pretty much said it was just a cultural thing and they were not taught to do it as kids.
