Provincially, Ontario and BC are tied for last happy place. That’s weird. I always hear BC people brag about “the majestic mountains on this side and the lovely ocean on that side.” Big deal. It rains everyday, too.
The Star says the happiest people are in Quebec and PEI.
I’m not sure about Quebec. Every time I’ve driven through Montreal I thought the drivers were insane. I wasn't happy.
PEI - I can see that. The pace of life is slower. The cliffs overlooking the Northumberland Strait are incredible! The only problem with PEI is crazy toll you have to pay to leave the island. That’s right - you can come to PEI for free, spend your money, eat and have fun but if you want to leave it's $42. But, I agree, PEI people seem real happy - from those who I talked to on my last visit.
As a country, Canada ranks 5th as the happiest nation in the G7. (Is that 5 out of 7?)
Well, I’m happy. Happy to be Canadian!
I can also see why people in PEI would be happier. The East Coast seems to have a much more relaxed pace of life and it's appealing.
