When you enter a shop in North America, the shop assistant usually greets you with : "hi, there !"
In Canada I hear like : "Hi there ! how are you doing today ?" In USA I hear like : "Hi there ! may I help you ?" Is it almost the same everywhere in Canada and the US ?

The French greet you like /I/ instead of /hi/ as most of them forget to pronounce the "H" in English.

Do you use "Hi" to attract attention of someone ?

"Hi" is more of a greeting.
"Hey" can be an informal way to attract someone's attention, but I'd only say that to a friend. If you're next to a stranger, it's best to say "Excuse me" or "pardon me." examples: Friend to friend: "Hey, what's the name of that movie we saw?" formal: "Excuse me, do you have the time?"

I once saw a parrot who had learnt to say "hello" with a perfect accent.
"who" had learnt or "which" had learnt ?
