Some info which you can use to decide...most waiters/waitresses earn minimum wage and depend heavily on tips.

I guess so . May be its the nature of the job like sales where a good portion of emolument is based on comission which relates directly to sales made . I will bear that in mind . Thanks.

Quite right. On good weekends(grand-prix/jazz festival etc), they make $300+/night in tips alone.
One can use the tax amount( GST+PST), which comes to approx 15 % in most provinces, to figure out what the tip should be. Some people round it out, by paying a bit more. e.g: gst+pst=5.65=6 $ tip
"Most service staff in Canada expect something in the 10-20% tip range, depending on what city, if it's French or English Canada, and the level of service. Tipping is expected for restaurants, bars, food delivery and taxis. You should not try to tip the police, especially the Royal Canadian Mountain Police - they will not appreciate it. 15% is a good tip in a restaurant. In Montreal, tips for a good meal at a good restaurant with good service should be tipped more. In most of English Canada, you would find it a lot harder to have the same experience, and anyway would not be expected to tip as much.
On the other hand, you should not tip if service is bad. If the service is really bad, leave a nickel - they should get the message. There is no excuse for bad service - it's so easy to give! And if you work in the service industry, the little effort can gain you a personal reward - tips!"

I would say tip $1 for every $10. But I would not tip if I'm taking out. Considering the number of times we eat out, I think this makes sense. However, you could be more generous. You never know you might come across a cute woman who makes you feel special (never know!)
