    Canada is the 12th safest country in the world. The US is 129th.

    Can we just stop comparing ourselves to the States for once? Our Literally Fascist Neighbours don’t warrant any consideration when discussing the quality of life here.

    We have it very good here.

    Which segments of the population are you choosing to speak for here, exactly?

        I hold any country in western Europe as being at least twice as good as here now.

        That we ranked above any of them is an outright joke. I’m only still here because of family and relationships.

          I’m about to shake your world. Ready?

          What you believe doesn’t change reality. Your feelings don’t matter.

          Sorry.
