 Hello everyone, this is financial author Amit Dan of Iran Journal, Canada the best place on earth. I have been contemplating writing about Canada's being the best country on earth for a while. However, due to the volume of good things about Canada to mention, I have been putting it off because I would have to write a book if I wanted to cover everything. Finally, instead of writing by myself, I took a shortcut and gathered some of the rankings done by well-known and reputable organizations and today I'm going to present to you some of the facts about Canada. Then it's for you to decide whether Canada is the best place on earth or not. According to OECD's Better Life Index, Canada ranks high in all measures of well-being and life in Canada is better than most other industrialized countries. According to the OECD's Global Livability Report, 3 to 4 Canadian cities are always in the top and Vancouver is always the world's most livable city. According to the Mercer Quality of Living Survey, several Canadian cities are always on the top and top 5 North American cities are Canadian. No cities from the US can be found in the top 10 or even in the top 25. According to the UN Human Development Index, which measures quality of life in countries around the world, Canada is one of the world's best places to live and is always on top 10. According to the Heritage Foundation's Index of Economic Freedom, Canada is the freest country and always in the top 10. According to the World Economic Forum's Global Competiteness Report, Canada is always in the top 10. According to the Transparency International's Corruption Perception Index, Canada is one of the least corrupt countries on earth. These are only a few to mention. Anyway, you look at Canada using any reports or indexes, it is in the top 10 consistently year after year. A point worth mentioning is that you'll not find our big brother in the south in the top in most of these rankings. Canada is a multi-racial, multicultural and multi-linguistic country. Canada's diversified background and cultures make it more unique and more unique than any other country on earth. Canada is the first country in the world to declare itself a multicultural country and in 1982, Canada added multiculturalism to its constitution. Canada recognizes values and protects its citizens, diversity and human rights and treats each individual with respect, equality and dignity. Canada is like nowhere else on earth and this is because Canada is the best country in the world. That's all for today. Thank you.
