      Yeah the US actually currently has a better quality of life than Canada. Those migrating here should be careful what they wish for. Life in Canada is really hard

        I can’t find a single source that ranks the US above Canada on quality of life. You got any kind of source for that that isn’t anecdotal?

          They’re probably thinking about housing prices, which are worse in Canada compared to income.

          Pretty sure he straight up pulled that one out of his ass

          Canada is basically always mentioned as a place to live with a high quality of life, even with all that’s wrong here I’d sure asf rather live here instead of say South Sudan

        If the country famous for shooting kids twice a day has a better QOL, things sound pretty rough.

        I like traveling and I was like oh Canada has so much open land, maybe I should look into traveling and the housing there, and I was completely blown away by the unbelievable cost and just practical shortage. Truly the best of luck to you guys.

        Are there any housing policies coming out anytime soon that might address those problems?

        I’m just going to keep traveling.
