I understand what you mean about cultures differing. And perhaps in
Canada, people are generally more friendly...

However, I've been in Canada a total of three times for a week at a time
to visit family.  And in my time there, I have met really nice people
especially in the bigger cities.  Maybe there, they are more
understanding of tourists there. But in the smaller towns where my
family lived, if you asked for directions to the bigger cities, eyes
rolled because you were an outsider.  

I'm no expert though, they may have done this to other Canadians who
weren't from that area, as well... who knows? I guess both of us would
have to spend extended periods of time there to know for sure.
