Why does Canada have a reputation of being boring?

At least I hear this from the people I encounter in my community who have relatives who live there. It is such a big country, I fail to see what could be available in other countries, that's not there?

Is it the cold weather and so people find themselves doing so many indoor activitiesand they don't like it? or maybe they are just stupid and don't know how to enjoy themselves?

I assume it's low population density above all else, and their wuss government doesn't let you have many guns.

I don't think its boring. We have so many things you can do here. Very diverse population with many great festivals, summer and winter. Usually people that say something is boring is usually because they are the ones boring. Every country has something to offer if you look for it.

@Jammy Agreed.. I think one can enjoy themselves anywhere, they just have to have the right mindset...

Canada is a huge country geographically but has a fairly small population in comparison. Lots of empty space is commonly perceived as boring, even if it isn't really empty or boring, and that perception gets applied to the people who live there.

Culturally, too, Canada is a distinct contrast to its closest neighbor, the U.S., which has been sowing and reaping chaos for centuries now. Canada has retained some of the reserved manner of its British colonial culture which the U.S. famously kicked out.

And then there is the perception that the population is trapped inside for three-quarters of the year as glaciers creep down the streets and feral wolves stalk the suburbs.

Or something like that, maybe? I don't know.
Oh Canada....
They have bobsleigh tracks,ski jumps,ice hockey,baseball .snow and soon two of my SW friends will live there.
And neither of you are Canadian.
Not boring.

@TheSirfurryanimalWales oh cool there is someone else :) I will keep you posted on my Canadian adventures
Boring as not passionate enough? lacking convictions? or not loud enough? But passion can actually be not so loud.

@EarthlingWise really no idea what they mean, they are usually vague.. but most of them are people who are very different from me..

I suppose North America doesn't have the old rich culture that the rest of the world has.
