NON-VERBAL COMMUNICATION IN
CANADA
VERBAL COMMUNICATION
- Canadians are relatively indirect communicators; they try to avoid creating
conflict by taking careful measures to remain polite throughout discussion.
- Canadians tend to speak clearly enough that their intention and
meaning is often apparent through careful word choice. They tend to
disagree openly but respectfully.
Eye Contact: Eye contact should be maintained directly and broken
intermittently. People often make enough eye contact to show their
sincerity.
NON- VERBAL COMMUNICATION
Physical Contact: Canadians tend not to touch each other much
during casual conversation. Good friends may hug, but people are
generally not tactile with those they are not close with.
