I think it is superior to most places in the world, but that is mainly because most places are crapholes. A large portion of Africa and Asia are just off the wall terrible when it comes to everything from disease, crime, safety, freedom, wealth, etc.. Latin America is hit and miss.

If we are just comparing Canada to other wealthy developed countries, then I agree that the differences are minor for the most part.

Having said that and keeping up with the spirit of the thread;

Europe >> North America
