Mostly poor and third world hellholes whose passports nobody even would want to have, like Norway, Denmark and Austria don't allow for dual citizenship. Other dumps like the Netherlands allows only under a few conditions.

Those Norwegians must be crazy if they think I will give my up British citizenship to live in their country.

I won't say never, but I can't see me moving away from Europe in the foreseeable future. Too much sacrifice. The process of uprooting myself and start all over in another part of the world is not very tempting. I'm very satisfied with what I have in my life. I feel I have more to lose than to win by moving at this moment. A person from a struggling country will perhaps look at America differently - as a place to climb up.

Things might change as years go by, and if I ever come closer to making a decision whether to move or not, I will certainly put weight on bigger issues than toilet facilities at airports or small parking spaces as mentioned earlier, that's for sure. Trivial annoying stuff will always come around no matter which country you live in.

I have first canadian cousins there.

We were in florida and we drove up for a wedding. It was crap crap crap! Flat and boring. We went in the summer and it was full or misquitos, awful. I thought it was a bit outdated and behind the times.

Canada is larger in area than Europe with plenty of regional variations... Having a bad experience in Winnipeg (heck in the winter everyone has bad experiences there lol) and saying you wouldn't want to live anywhere else in Canada, would be like me saying I had bad experiences in Barcelona and thus I wouldn't want to live in Belfast.
