Take advantage of the customs of your new life.
Now that you've left your home country behind (and if you're an American, abandoned the circus of presidential elections), embrace what makes Canada unique.
Many Canadians express deep fondness for Tim Hortons, quirky slang, celebrity ambassadors, and hockey.
No one will expect you to dive headfirst into this new world, but if you want to become a genuine citizen, formal requirements are only the start.
