Canada: “Peace Order and Good Government”

At Canada’s founding, the British North America Act (later to be known as the Constitution Act of 1867), set out the guiding principles and governance structures of this new country. At the core of it were peace, order and good government.

Today in 2022, exactly 155 years later, Canada has become a bastion of stability, safety, and responsibility among democratic societies in the world.

With a population of over 38 million people, Canada is a nation of immigrants from every corner of the world. We are a G7 economy, member of NATO, and are universally known as a peaceful, tolerant, open and free society. Canada is blessed with a large and pristine landmass, superior public health care and academic institutions, a thriving business sector, robust international trade, as well competent and responsible governments.

This past August, the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) released their Global Liveability Index ranking of the top 10 best and 10 worst places to live in the world in 2022. The index scored 172 cities in five categories: culture, health care, education, infrastructure, and entertainment. European and Canadian cities dominate the list of Most Liveable Cities thanks to factors like stability and good infrastructure. These cities inhabitants are supported by good healthcare and numerous opportunities for culture and entertainment, according to the index. And year after year, cities in Canada tend to rank high among quality of life lists thanks to their well-developed social market economy. This year, three Canadian cities made the top ten – Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto – although we have no doubt that Montreal should have made the list!
