~Something i don't understand~

When i came to Canada,  there are many things i don't understand. These things usually very different between China and Canada.
First, when i bought a ticket to take public transportation, i have never think one ticket can use for many turn during the two hours. Because in China, people only can use one ticket take one public transportation and can not use that anyway.
Second, i don't understand why we should pay tax when we buy somethings. We already paid the bill, and that money is more than the initial production price, and that things usually made in Canada. In China, i have never pay tax between the price. Maybe i already pay, but i never know, because in China everything only have one price.
Third, in China, if the waiter worked very well then people will pay the tip for them ,but they don't have to do that. If they think the waiter worked not very well, they don't need to pay the tip for them.
Next, i don't understand why people should pay money to download somethings from internet. In China, that things usually are people sent them on the internet, they just want to give other people some benefits.Also, many things are free for everyone, people don't need to pay money. When i came to Canada, i just want to listen some music online, sometime i can't do that because i need to pay money. That make me crazy...
When people go some new place usually have many different things between their hometown, these things usually make people don't understand. After a few months, they will adapt to the new environment, and understand those things.

    Maybe people's attitude is the most important for canadians. No matter how you aren't satisfied with their work, but they worked for you,and paying tips is reasonable,right?
