Actually, I find that Americans can be much nicer. I know that you ca’t say an entire country is rude or nice, but many Canadians I have met were very rude to me and would brag. And although I live i the Midwest of the US, people are very kind and ALWAYS say hello. But that’s just me.

honey thats not an Asian thing its just called being clean and not getting mud on the floor.

As an Indian, I support what you say. Part of the reason is poverty, overpopulation and corruption prevalent in India. Indian People are always unhappy and stressed out and frustrated. They even hate other Indians. Educated Indians are even worse as they are always in a competion mode to earn more money,fame etc that their neighbour, peers etc. They also have a superiority attitude about their own traditions and cultures and food. I do agree Indian culture, tradition and food is great but they need to be more toleratnt and understanding about other cultures , beliefs and food. Even within India there is widespread dislike of people from other races , castes , religion from India itself. For example , people from the south son’t like people from the North (majority not all) and vice versa. Similarly Hindus and Muslims hate each other (many not all)..
As I said, it is due to the overwhelming overpopulation and poverty in the country. Everyone is struggling for survival, so nastiness becomes a national trait. You have to shout and yell to get basic things done (like get a telephone connection, fix your plumbing, get into a train/bus etc). But there are parts of India ,away from the cities , where people are very nice. Go to the North east or Goa , for example.

Being “nice” and being “friendly” are two different things. You can be nice without being friendly. Canadians are definitely “nice” , but not as friendly. Being friendly means someone you can confide with . A friend is someone more personal whom you can rely on and won’t stab you behind your back. Yes , Canadians are nice and polite but generally very difficult to be friends with.
