In my Cross-Cultural Perspectives course this summer, I asked my entirely international class, “What’s a cultural norm that you found strange when you first came to Canada?”

A student from Saudi Arabia replied, “Everyone in Canada has cats or dogs as pets. In Saudi, we have cheetahs and tigers.” He told us about his pet cheetah who sadly died of food poisoning.
