Despite what Canada's nation hating extreme right would have you believe.

I didn't actually read this... because I'm actually supposed to be working right now. After a bit of digging i found their methodology. someone want to look it over and see how legitimate it is? https://www.usnews.com/news/best-countries/articles/methodology

I was thinking Canada was going down the tube for years and then I left vancouver to go to a smaller city. I just don't see the point of struggling every single day just to have some temperate weather and nice mountains in the background. Even if I liked skiing or hiking I didn't have the time or money to reap the benefits of that city. In 2 years since I left I have bought a house, with a yard for my dog. sure the Prarie winters are hard but at least I'm saving for my future. my advice to anyone who is barely making it by those large city centre, go somewhere that will value your effort and provide the opportunity for you to be happy. It's not as scary as you would think.

Back when the Glorious Orange Leader was taking about building a northern border fence my American coworkers asked me how Canadians felt about it. I said that we were all for it since the US was Canada's Mexico.

Don't insult Mexico like that!

[–] MapleEngineer@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I know. I love Mexico. It only works because Americans hate Mexico.

[–] thefartographer@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I'm from south Texas and it took me forever to realize that people don't like Mexico. It really confused me to hear Mexicans supporting building the wall...

Considering Nazi Gold, Fascist Genocide Money Switzerland is #1, I'd put Canada at #1 myself. I get the reasons for the rankings though.

Also USA is #5, so we good lol. Sweden and Australia is 3 and 4.
