@chriswho Bit of a tangent here, but I was impressed by Vancouver. A city of 2 million, twice the size of the biggest Dutch city, but nice, clean and very, very friendly.

But of course, as a tourist, I didn't visit the bad parts, so my view is necessarily incomplete.

And ecologically... I did a common route, so I saw Banff and Jasper, walked on the Athabasca glacier and toured several thousands of kilometers through spectacular sceneries. Nothing like that in our country.

Also had an excursion to the end of the world, I saw eagles, flocks of wapiti deer, humpback and killer whales and bears chasing salmon... I'll never forget that trip 😍

And yes, I've even looked into moving to Canada a few times. You know, just curious...

But I realise that I've only seen the nice parts, and have only spoken to the friendly people (although that seems to be the overwhelming majority). I'm sure Canada has its own challenges that I am not aware of.
