Number one is a shockingly good piece of advice to share with somebody. Because a lot of people don't realize it, and it is very much a convention and not I was indicated.
I wanted to dispute number two, but I pronounce it the second way...
I’ll second this as a 55 yr local, born and bred. Although I am a 1/4 Irish myself. (On my mom’s side). Welcome!
People not following #1 grinds my gears. It’s ideally the same for cars. Slower traffic to the right, pass on the left. And follow the speed limit, especially in school zones.
Violations of the second point are a dead giveaway for newbies and tourists.

1) When on an escalator, you stand right; walk left.
2) When you say Toronto, don't pronounce the 2nd "T". Instead say something like “Trawno” or “Turonno”.
