Okay, I'm doing this mostly to see whether I can work out how to post a poll, but I am interested in the results, as it's a moral quandary that has stumped me for years...
In Canada, it depends on where you are. In Montreal, for example, you take your life in your hands when crossing the street. In Toronto, you can quite literally stop traffic, and the sense of power is quite heady. Here in BC, it kind of depends where the intersection is and the mood of the driver. Drivers are obliged to stop, but don't always, and I always smile at them and/or wave or nod if they do. The term zebra crossing is not used here, either. I only know it from my British origins.
