Canons do have generally pleasing flesh tones, but they have a tendency to go red. I don't normally shoot jpegs so I adjust in post.
Leica have excellent skin tones. I've been trying out Fuji X cameras and they jpegs are remarkable. You have several simulated film profiles and can choose the one that works best with a particular subject and lighting situation. In addition, I can take a photo, use the built in wifi transmit a sized image to my iPad and have it posted here or on social media within a minute of capture.
Yes. Canon's skin tones go red, Nikon's go yellow, Sony's go green. 
To the OP: Yes, you will see the famous "Canon colors" in out of the camera JPEGs or if you use DPP to convert RAWs. You will also see a close facsimile if using the camera-specific profiles in Adobe software.
Remember that you can use Canon's Picture Style settings to modify the look of your JPEGs according to your taste.
On newer bodies, Picture Style settings have been enhanced to include detailed sharpening settings. This is nice because for years Canon's JPEGs have suffered from excessive NR softening and by aggressive high radius sharpening that causes halos and artifacts. You still can't do much about the NR, but you can improve detail and sharpening. Try selecting the 'Fine Detail' Picture Style instead of 'Standard', if available, (this also applies a slightly softer contrast curve which helps with highlights) and then turning down sharpening a notch or two and see what you think.
