Contribution from NCP Client

1.     Please be courteous towards others. This includes helping others who need help, holding the door open for people, giving everyone a chance to speak, listening to them calmly and responding with respect.

2.     Manners, courtesy, and respect for each other will make your life and that of others better. Greet everyone with a smile and good morning, good afternoon and good evening. 

3.     Help yourself and your society by taking care of the environment. When you go shopping for groceries, be courteous and if there is something that you pick up from the shelf and later decide that you don’t need it, please put it back or give it to a staff member. This will help to keep the cost of living lower for everyone.

4.     Try to be happy every day. Try to find at least one thing every day that makes you happy. Every day we see daylight, we are rich.

5.     The best person in your country is a teacher. Respect your teachers. Everyone learns from a teacher no matter what their profession.

6.     Treat the environment like we treat our own home. Treat other people like you would want to be treated.

7.     When you see a sign, follow it, it is for your own safety.

8.     The government is the people of the country. If we don’t pay tax, the country cannot run. Canada is a very clean country and we should keep it that way.

9.     Canada is our country and we have to respect this country by being loyal and honest.

10.  To love Canada is to take care of Canada. We should have love and respect for one another and take a lesson from the animal kingdom where animals respect their territory and follow the rules to take of themselves and their children.
