Nor was I ... I'm in Cabo San Lucas. Infrastructure like water (everyone has to have their own pila), and garbage disposal is primitive here.... I live along the trans-peninsular corridor, and they don't even have a sewer line that we can connect to... everyone just has a primitive septic system... not far from the wells. So to compare Canada's infrastructure to that of a country like Mexico is over the top for sure. And this place will be Mexico's show place next year with the G20 meeting.

Btw, Mexico isn't considered the 3rd world and the developing world and 3rd world aren't the same thing. The developing world usually refers to countries like China, Turkey, Malaysia, Brazil, even South Korea. '3rd world' is an obsolete term these days and largely falling out of use. It's a condescending arrogant term used by rich nations in reference to desperately poor nations they consider below them.

Well that's your opinion... I hear Mexicans (beyond the elites) refer to Mexico as "3rd world" all the time... I mean do you live here or what? We can't hide the truth about a place with political correctness.
