      Coming from Uruguay, I didn’t feel a big change on that regard when coming to Canada, which I guess makes sense because we are tied on the ranking.

      I think it sometimes takes interacting with people from other places in the world to realize how lucky we are in some sense.

        I read that a lot: going out and experiencing different cultures gives one a better perspective. I spent a number of years in America, for instance, and I definitely missed Canadian healthcare from 1999. I still do, but a bit less; but I still do.

      This makes me lose hope in the future of our world. But I guess I’m glad to live in Canada.

        Every now and then the world goes into a dark place which is what (I believe) we are heading into now. But the world has come out stronger from most of those dark places and I believe it will simply repeat this cycle

      The part that isn’t corrupt is colonialist!
