Big Mac Index (in $US):

Sweden: $5.87

Canada: $5.56


Edit: Added comparison.

Now add in Vacation time and benefits. Swedish workers are required to take 25 paid vacation days per year.

Why not look at Denmark? 22/hr with 6 weeks of vacation and their big macs cost the same .


Denmark : 5.69
Canada : 5.56

Australia has a minimum wage of $23 average McDonald's worker wage is near or over $24/hr. So over $20 cad, with 4 weeks of vacation, big macs are cheaper.

Australia :5.07
Canada : 5.56
