What cultural faux pas should I try to avoid making in Kelowna?

Answer this Question

We asked people in Kelowna if they could share any humorous cultural blunders they commited. For new expats, keep in mind that these incidents are an inevitable part of expat life. Learning to laugh about them is the key!...

"It is important to be respectful of the local Indigenous peoples in Kelowna. Showing respect for their culture and history is essential. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local customs and etiquette. For example, it is polite to greet people with a handshake or a nod of the head. It is also important to dress appropriately for the occasion, as dressing too casually or too formally can be seen as disrespectful. Finally, it is important to be mindful of the local language and to avoid using offensive language or making jokes about the local culture," said a member in Kelowna, Canada.
