When I was an undergrad, a mass email was sent to the entire graduating class informing us about an optional business etiquette training seminar at a local restaurant. I'm not sure how many people went. I think seminars like this should be offered at the middle school level or even earlier. Students shouldn't have to wait until they're in their early 20s to learn.
I know of a social/family club in Toronto that offers etiquette training to kids and teens.
Interesting GLO-related info: When I was researching for my "major research paper", I found an etiquette book called Etiquette in Canada by Audrey Pringle that has a section advising girls on rush. The book was from the 40s, I think, and I guess more Canadian girls joined sororities back then.
