If you feel it’s time for a change of scene, here’s something to consider: starting in 2024, young Canadian adults can live and work in Iceland for a year.

For Iceland specifically, though for other nations this program is already in place. About 240,000 canadians have done this so far, going to 38 different countries which is impressive. This expansion will grow if both nations see value too, next year it might be 240.

So yeah, the headlines a bit misleading, but it's brought to attention a pretty cool program
