The Status of Canadians in Taiwan
Foreigners stand out in Taiwan. You may find everyone around you watching what you do with great interest, especially outside large metropolitan centres. Despite rapid social change in the last decade, in many ways Taiwanese society is more conservative than North American society. Canadians should be sensitive to cultural norms and expectations.
Generally speaking, Taiwanese are very friendly toward Canadians. For the most part, Taiwanese knowledge of Canada is limited to well-known places and symbols such as Niagara Falls, the Mounties and the maple leaf. Taiwanese are delighted by Canadians who make an effort to speak Mandarin, and will offer smiles and words of encouragement.
