Default So what is good about Canada?

Hello,
In a forum people obviously post there problems and so it is easy to find out what is difficult or what people don’t like about Canada. I would like to see some positivity.

I will be emigrating to Canada in a few weeks and so i would like to know what everyone does like, what they enjoy about Canada and why they are glad they emigrated.

Tell me why Canada is great!

Wont you find out in a few weeks (well, about two years or so after you arrive and have settled in anyway)

I love canada, for many reasons. All stated ad nauseum before.

Actual Seasons
Great for my kids
No crime
Little to no stress
Affordable
etc etc.

See the "where is autumn" thread too for some good things!

Do a search on this site. There are countless positive posts, I think outnumbering the negative ones.

What do you like about Canada and what are you looking forward to? That's all that matters really, unless you're looking for validation of course

its people have a wonderful sense of humour and will roll about with laughter whenever there is even a hint your lips are about to part.

It would be nice to have a snow plough driver to curse.
