Canada is a pretty big country and things vary greatlly depending on which province you are from but overall:

Dislike:
Taxes
Cost of products
Cost of living
Winter


Likes
Multi-party political system (makes it so no one gets too big for their britches)
Internationally we have a pretty good reputation for playing well with others
Fairly social conscious country
No death penalty
Don't live in fear of things like terrorism
Cost of medicine
Having seasons
People are very friendly and welcoming

hehe I just looked up the cost of living globally.....nevermind. But there are a lot of balances there like education. Some people are still paying off student loans in their 40s they got while getting their degrees.
