It's hard not to look at it's land mass and resources, it's potential for more population, plus when you factor climate change, plus it's peaceful, successful civilization, and think it maybe the hope for the future. I can't really see that even the UK has those prospects, what with it's chronic overcrowding, and vastly smaller land mass. There is if of course a comparable nation in a cool zone, which is Russia. I wonder what their future will be? I think the UK may be self important and hard to sustain when I look at it's predicament, the greatness it aspires to but it's limited land and resources.
The short answer is Canada will only get stronger but the future is south east Asia and the sub continent.
Canada must be a great country to live in for sure-especially if you want to bring up children.Im surprised more people dont dream of living there.Perhaps it's the cold.

Yes I know. I know it may seem strange but for me that's part of the attraction. In Britain everything (except housing in the south ) is cheaper but we probably aren't happier.*We just consume more.
One of the reasons prices are more expensive in Norway (at least I assume it's one of the reasons) is because of added taxes.
But these taxes go to help make Norway a more equal society which I for one would prefer to live in.
Apart from that I'd consider the extra costs as a tax on the natural beauty including being able to see the stars in the night sky.Not to mention keeping the population down.
But also living a relatively frugal lifestyle can teach your children a great deal and turn them into better adjusted adults.
(Mind you when they get to 18 they will tend to get the ferry to England and get ****** cheaply!)
* if surveys show that Norwegians aren't that happy it's no doubt because people eventually don't appreciate what they have
(Of course I will never go now,mind.It takes a certain amount of je ne sais quoi to emigrate)
I have a theory. I honestly believe the regular coming and going of the seasons and the winters we endure brings us closer as a society. Health coverage for all and the yearly soldiering together through winter is both unifying and humbling.

Anyway, if you think everything north of the border is uninhabitable I think you need to do some research. 90% of Canada is south of Alaska and that state has a thriving population. If you factor in climate change Canada's north will be like a massive lifeboat for the world. The fact is Canada has a small population because the country is only 150 years old. The north is very liveable and already is developed. I have no clue where you'd get the Argentina comparison.
