Random Acts of Canadianness.

Kinda gives a boost in one's faith in Canuck-manity  :nod:

Or perpetuates a stereotype. Either way, a BZ to this guy who went out of his way to be helpful.

B.C. biker's 'random act of Canadianness' goes viral

http://www.cbc.ca/newsblogs/yourcommunity/2013/08/bc-bikers-random-act-of-canadianness-goes-viral.html

A kind-hearted motorcyclist from Victoria B.C. is making his way across the web today for committing a “random act of coolness” – or, as some have put it a “random act of Canadianness” – that happened to be captured on camera.

In the video, we see the self-described “family friendly motovlogger” zooming down a B.C. street through his helmet-mounted GoPro camera.

From the rider’s perspective, viewers notice a woman in a motorized wheelchair stopped on the sidewalk.

The sharp-eyed rider pulls over to find her wheels stuck in a depressed patch of dirt and gravel beside the path. He quickly pulls the entire chair up and out of the patch, sending her along her way.

“There ya go, had to lock the hubs!” he says. “Have a good one!”

The short, yet touching exchange has many showering praise upon the rider for his kindness and in turn upon Canadians for our reputation as friendly and helpful.

Here's another recent example from May - this time out of Vancouver.

Random acts of kindness are not just a Canadian trait, that leads to the Canadian vs Yank crap I am so sick of.
