Unless you have gay relatives or friends. My point is that Australia is still an unequal society in that regard and therefore not the same as Canada.
However, in a few years this will change in Australia so in a way my point is me playing the devils advocate
Sydney has one of the most famous gay pride parades in the world. There is a relatively large openly gay community there. I'm sure none of my gay friends here would have any issue with visiting Australia. No 2 countries are identical but Australia in many ways is the closest to being Canada's twin out there with the benefit for me anyway of having better weather.

I support euthanasia, I would be happier with Taiwan if we had that.

So what is it? I'm interested, so why not tell? You can send a private message if you don't want to tell it publicly.
edit : ... nevermind everything i say. sorry.

Euthanasia would be a strong predictor of a country's general posture on personal liberty and common sense legislation. So, although not important by itself, a country that allowed it would very likely be a good place to live in general respects.
Similarly, I don't drink, so it has no direct personal relevance to me, but I would use a country's drinking laws and minimum age for drinking as a litmus test for personal liberty and social maturity. I am not contemplating homicide (at the moment) but a country with capital punishment is waving a red flag at me.
I drink but I don't think drinking alcohol should be permitted by law. That's why I think Islamic world is more mature than the rest of the world in this regard.
