CANADA
Our Student in Canada
Canada is a safe place to live and study. Our crime rates are very low and people are able to travel freely about the country without concern. Our police are friendly and professional and have outstanding relationships with the communities they serve. Canada is at peace with all its neighbors and we spend far more on health care than we do on our armed forces.
According to the UN’s Human Development Index (HDI), a survey of such things as literacy, education, poverty and life expectancy used to measure a country’s well-being, Canada ranks in the top five countries in the world. Countries that rank high in this index are politically and economically safe and stable.
Good Economy
Safety can often be tied to a good economy and a distribution of wealth throughout the population. In Canada, the majority of people are employed: Canada's unemployment rate as of March 2004 was 7.5%.
While there are some people in Canada who have very little money and others who have more money than they know what to do with, the majority of Canadians fall in the middle and are able to live comfortably. Most Canadian families own their own homes or have their own apartments or condominiums. It is rare in Canada for people to go without the basic necessities of life, such as food, shelter and clothing.
In addition, there is very little in the way of social barriers for a Canadian to start off with nothing and make something of themselves. There are no official classes or groupings in Canadian society and legally no one can be turned down for a job based on their race, sexual preference, ethnicity or gender.
Low Crime rate
Canada has traditionally had a very low crime rate even among other industrialized nations. Our crime rate declined 4% per year from 1992 - 1999. As of July 2003 the crime rate was holding steady. Though many Canadians do own guns, they tend to use them for hunting and recreation as opposed to crime or violence and they tend to be rifles as opposed to handguns. Compared to a country like the United States, Canada has more strict gun control laws (although compared to the United Kingdom, our gun control laws are not as strict).
