It's called kick-down. When you suddenly press harder on the pedal to accelerate harder, your gearbox will automatically downshift.

I'm Canadian and I have never driven manual.

Thanks, that's what I was wondering!

@DMeisterJ: I guess it's annoying when you learn to drive on an automatic. Otherwise it isn't annoying for most people AFAIK.
