Our modern society

That's awful. These days everyone has the mentality that someone else will help so they don't have to.

Sadly it's like this in the US in a lot of places as well. You cant really count on a stranger to come to your rescue when you're in deep trouble.
 
Has to be Fake News.

Everybody knows that Canadians all love each other and stand around and sing songs about maple syrup together.

Right?

Are you basing your conclusion on astrology? It took place in my province and was picked up across the country.

There are still good Samaritans out there, though. A number of years ago I crashed my vehicle in a snow storm driving out to see family for Christmas/New Year's. This absolute angel of a woman went out of her way to make sure I was OK, help me get sorted and onto a bus to continue my journey. I have no idea who she was; I never thought to ask her name. All I know is she worked at a gas station along the highway.

I've been one of them. A guy was having a heart attack in his truck by a stop sign. I called 911 and stayed there until a police car rolled up and then the cop dismissed me. Saw an ambulance arrive soon after.
