I've lived in both the US and Canada and from my experience, the average Canadian lives a better life than the average American.

GDP per capita certainly needs to increase, however at the moment Mark Carney appears to have the better plan to actually accomplish this.

I totally agree with you. Canada always comes out on top when it comes to quality of life for the average person.
