Canadian checking in.
Biggest oddity to me is that the default for restaurants is one bill, and waiters get annoyed if you ask them to split it by person.
Like why would I want to either:
It's complete insanity to me.
It's the tipping culture. If you have to split the bill, the presumption is everyone will tip poorly under the assumption that someone else will tip well. Having worked several food service gigs, I can say that is accurate.
