As an Australian living in the U.S, my vote has to go with Canada! I love North America

I'm living in Canada right now ...
Location: Canada (Australia too isolated)
Climate: Australia (Worse thing about Canada for me ...)
Quality of life: Both (Australia has way higher cost of living but the climate is better to enjoy free outdoor activities ...).
Crime: Canada
Stores/Shopping: Canada
School/College: Canada
Entertainment/Things to do: Canada (US city trips ...)
Diversity: Canada
Economy: Canada (and access to the huge US job market ...)
Culture: Canada
Food:Canada
History:Both
Overall beauty:Australia (Landscapes and weather)

Overall, I would prefer to live in Canada and travel in the US (for weather and landscapes), Australia is great for vacations but would be boring to live ...
Here, I can just take my car for a weekend in New York City or other big Canadian/US cities or take a 2-3 hours flight for a weekend in Miami, Vegas, ... so many places to explore

Australia, Canada is just too damn cold, and too dark in the winter.

Australia. Getting trampled by a Moose, isn't for me.

The cold would be another reason.

What country would you like to live in?

Never being to Canada, or North America, I really have no interest in the area to tell the truth.


Location: Canada
Climate: Australia
Quality of life: No idea
Crime: They are both seem quite safe
Stores/Shopping: Ill void this I HATE shopping for everything except food.
School/College: They seem quite even
Entertainment/Things to do: No idea
Diversity: Canada only becuase of Quebec
Economy: Australia
Culture: No Idea
Food: I once ate a poutine, it was the worst thing ive ever eaten, so Australia
History: Canada
Overall beauty: Canada

Overall I am very happy where I am, having lived in a couple of cold cities that receive snow falls (London and Seoul), I know it would not be worth the effort to live in such a climate to receive what might be a slightly better education, and see more people who speak French.

Canada. I like the cold and the standard 4 seasons. Closer to Europe and the United States.

Australia is like the American Southwest. Only less interesting. And more expensive.

My vote goes for canada

Friendlier (tho Aussies are friendly also), closer to the U.S and no dangerous animals like snakes and spiders.
