This is completely foreign to me.
I'm Canadian you see, and we have this knack for apologies; sorry if you've heard this before but its a national affliction.
It's so deeply ingrained into the culture that if you had of run me down in the street as your narrative suggest.. I'd be apologizing to you!
Just the other week my buddy Manner was regaling me with a thrift store excursion wherein an little old blue bonneted lady continually kept running into him throughout the store... They had a 'Sorry-Off'. Even when he saw her coming around for another pass all he did was preemptively apologize and take firm hold of his Tim Hortons coffee to ensure its survival.
