No necklaces or anything not even an Assegai in the ear he sounded quite dissapointed, then he is quite weird.
Been there for 7 months now and nothing happened to me yet (although I'm now in Oz)...

Canadians are extremely polite, down to earth and trustworthy, just what I like.

It remind me when i was living in Paris, i helped a young American girl to
find his way out from "Austerlitz railway station", i told her to follow me, she
does it ( about 5 meters behind me),she seemed to be frightened,maybe she
imagined i was looking for a quiet place to rape her !No rape later we where
outside and she finaly smiled, sometime i wonder if i'm realy French !
