What are the key cultural differences between Canada and China, and how do they shape the way people live, work, and interact? How do communication styles, family values, and social norms differ across these two countries? What does education look like, and how does it prepare people for their futures in each culture? And how has Canada changed over the years? Does it still fit the old assumptions?_x000D_

Let's join Cathy, Toronto native with roots in China,and a Harvard psychology master's student, as she guides us through these questions and more. With her deep understanding of both cultures, Cathy will explore how history, geography, and societal structures have shaped communication, family dynamics, and social expectations in Canada and China._x000D_

We’ll also examine how the education systems in both countries influence personal development and future opportunities. If time allows, we'll also touch on how Canada’s demographics have shifted in recent years, with rising crime rates and a growing cost of living, making the country feel different from what it once was. This is a unique opportunity to understand two cultures from someone who truly bridges both worlds._x000D_
