5 good reasons for living in Canada

Hi,

if someone asks you the best reasons for making the choice to live and stay in Canada, what would be your top 5?

Thanks in advance for participating,

Julien

I wrote a piece for British newspaper a while ago that covered 5 Lessons From Life in Canada...

...and another listing the 5 Things No-One Tells You when you move to Canada from the UK.

See what you think :-)

1. Personal safety

2. Superior health care.

3.Low crime rates.

4. Natural beauty.

5. Acceptance of people of different backgrounds.

The "GOOD" reasons are:

1. Low violent crime (Rape,Murder)although the prevalence of other crimes are higher
2. Personal safety is fairly good
3. Nature is a +
4. Fairly clean and efficient

These are overshadowed by underlying issues that remain unaddressed. Do some research as there are plenty of articles, reports and videos on the net.

Safety, nature, services, clean and health plan

I did my masters there but I really didn't like it. Compared to EU countries quite low standard of living, high prices and low quality and shitty weather and actually no health care (in Quebec especially)...I m glad to be out of Canada actually.:)

I just thought of the best thing.  It's close to Minnesota.  That's worth the price of admission right there.
