In this day and age, does it really matter if your country has a "negative" view by the world ?
I tend to think it does not matter as a country will always do whats best in it interests.
only trascend if they put A LOT pressure on the level that it does
matter and that is the business community and the governments.
If someone is doing good business and good deals with Iran and
Israel, the reality is that what 'John Doe' thinks matters nothing at all.

The fact that Canada comes out top shows how worthless this survey is.
What the hell has Canada ever done?
She's even above the EU. Damn

If the US had free healthcare then people would go there instead.
Sorry, I am sure you are not, but every Canadian I have met so far was boring, uncultured 'trailer-trash'.
I am sure you are not all like that, but those are the ones i met outside of Canada, ie travelling, what are the ones like that have never left the place?

within any country affect greatly the mindset of the populace. perhaps our left leaning liberal attitude is the problem. i know it is for me. "responsibility" is now deamed a four letter word. for one thing i would compare our crime stats with any other country our age. at least our national pasttime isn't murder as it is in at least one i can think of.

Most Canadians I have met have been chilled and relaxed people. When I went to Canada (a few times) I have always found the people to be nice and not boring.

Do you honestly think we live in this country solely because of the free healthcare? Who told you that, the large mass of boring, uncultured Canadians you've met travelling? God, you're such an expert. I hold you in such high regard!
People are people on matter where you go. There are so-called boring, uncultured slobs in every country, just like there are ignorant snobs in every country. Don't be such a moron.
