I have to say that this article can be very offensive to some readers. It's also a culture shock between Taiwanese and Western culture.
這篇文章可能非常的有批判性（針對台灣的文化和加拿大或西方文化），不喜勿入。
In Canada, skytrains don't have bars before entering. Some buses also have more than one segs and passengers would load up from different doors. Honesty become a critical issue here. As far as I saw, most people would buy tickets at the dispensor before entering paid zone.
在加拿大，skytrain (類似台灣的捷運)是沒有閘門的，只有一條黃線區別著『已付費地帶』。有些公車也不只一節車廂，上車時可能有多個門同時開啟供乘客上車。誠實與否是個非常重要的議題。但只少就目前所見，大多數的人都會先買票後捷運，或是從公車的前方門（有公車司機和賣票機）上車。
While attending the conference in November, I met someone from my home country claiming that one doesn't have to pay for full attendance of the conference, just pay for one day and attend as many session as one wants. That shocks me since some faculty members did that as well. The conference is really expensive, but is it good to save money by being dishonest?
11月在溫哥華有著相關領域的重要conference，當時碰到了來自台灣的朋友，告知說不需要付全額費用參加，只要付一天的費用，然後遮住名牌上的說明部分，並參加自己想去的session。這使我相當的驚訝與掙扎，為了省錢（conference非常的貴，絕對不是貪小便宜）而犧牲自己的誠實，甚至換來臭名是否值得呢？
People I met at the conference (from US, Canada, France and many other countries) paid for their full attendance. I, myself, would not deny that I gain a lot for full participation (even it really hurts to pay for full attendance). Maybe it's a cultural issue, but it is something a Taiwanese really should think about.
在會場中碰到的很多學者、研究生（來自世界各地，包括某些來自台灣的學者）都為了全程參與而付了全額費用，個人也從會議中聽到不少有趣的東西，雖然付全額費用真的很傷荷包。是否付全額費用的爭議可能不是第一次，但是卻是需要發人深省的。難不成我們是貪小便宜的台灣人嗎？
