To mark Canada's 144th anniversary on July 1st, Maclean's Magazine published a list of 10 reasons why it's the best time ever to be Canadian. Reasons include that Canada leads the way in medical research, is more peaceful than Switzerland and Australia, and has the world's highest golf participation. Also according to the Maclean's report, we're more entrepreneurial than the U.S.A., have the roomiest homes on earth, and (not surprisingly, given the previous reasons) attract the brightest immigrants.
