I was in Toronto once at a pretty nice restaurant for a business lunch
(I was buying) with a bunch of people. Asked the waiter for iced tea.
He said "We don't have that." I kinda looked at him and asked if they
had tea. He said yes. Then I asked him if they had ice. He said yes.
Then I asked him if they could put some tea on the ice in a big glass.
He said no. Asked why not. He said the tea would be hot and melt the
ice. So I said, bring me tea, bring me two glasses full of ice. He
asked why. I told him I would show him how to make iced tea. So after
a few minutes he shows up with a pot of tea and two glasses of ice. I
pour the hot tea over one after letting it get kinda strong, then poured
that one into the other glass of ice. Iced tea. The waiter was
astonished as were most of my Canadian colleagues. It appeared to be
the first time they had ever seen such a thing.

Also iced tea is presumed to be sweetened, you have to ask for the

Whenever I travel "up north" with people from the south they ask if
they have sweet tea every time they eat just on the odd chance someone
might have it. They haven't been successful yet.
