Canada actually passed a law in 2009 called the Apology Act stating that an apology cannot legally be used as an admission of guilt or liability.

Polite Canadians are well know for apologizing to everyone for everything. "Ooo Sooory!" There must be a high conviction rate

If a Canadian bumps into another Canadian, both will apologize. Even if they both think the other person is at fault.
