Canadians are notorious apologizers. It spills from our lips in a nearly endless variety of scenarios.

You won’t find people in any other country in the world who will say the word “sorry” to someone who is clearly in the wrong. Image
This is a uniquely Canadian phenomenon. So unique, in fact, that the term carries legal weight in the province of Ontario.

The “Apology Act“, passed in 2009, is a direct result of Canada’s overuse of the word “sorry”.
See, once upon a time, lawyers in court were probably able establish guilt quite easily.

All they would have to do is prove someone apologized at the time of the incident and presto! the verdict would swing in their favour.
