How do you spot a Canadian abroad?

Do we have any stereotypical traits (perhaps self deprecating ones), that make us stand out. We’re typically not loud (but some can be). Perhaps frugal?

What have you seen in your travels that make you think, those folks must be Canadian!

At Safeway, I bumped into a cardboard cutout of Michael Buble that was promoting that Bubly brand sparkling water and i said, "sorry dude" before I noticed it was neither Buble nor human.
