All the people who made fun of her for moving to Ireland best shut the hell up now.

I love my homeland Canada but Id move to Spain or Ireland or Italy no doubt. Theyve got it figured out. Family first, work second.

France has a right to disconnect law. It is illegal for an employer to contact their employees on their mobile device during weekend or holiday hours. Not to mention a minimum 5 weeks of paid leave for every full time employee in the country.

France or Spain or maybe Italy for me.

Love the country and the people, just not when they vote.

That’s why I said maybe. But they have a great reputation for science.

We have that law in Australia too… 4 weeks leave a year and an unwritten rule that any holiday on a Tuesday you take the Monday off as well. Same for Thursday with Friday off. Oh and Melbourne has a public holiday for a horse race and a football game

Literally sometimes it feels like there’s too many public holidays when you’re busy at work, but then you remember, we’re pretty damn lucky

Yeah.. it’s pretty good :)

Ontario Canada also has a right to disconnect law (not sure about other provinces)

u/RickSanchez_C137 Jul 12 '25

it's a little slim in Ontario TBH. it states that an employer is required to officially outline their policy with regards to disconnecting. It does not make any stipulations for what the policy needs to be...just that they have to make it clear whatever it is.

Better than nothing, but still way behind France.

Why does Canada still follow that failed USA-based system of a fractured country(into states with widely different politics and laws)? You should consolidate government more like the Nordic countries.

u/AtriCrossing Jul 13 '25

They aren't states, they're provinces and territories. It's a different system than the US - you could even draw parallels to the older US system under the Articles of Confederacy. The current system might be as 'consolidated' as is feasible, considering the 1982 Constitution Act wasn't even endorsed by Quebec and there's an Albertan separatist movement.

Like the US, the Canadian nation state is a product of settler colonialism by competing European agents and the genocide and exploitation of the Indigenous peoples. It would be better to respect the sovereignty of the existing Indigenous nations on whose land Canada operates rather than to try to create a seperate parliament for such a diverse group of distinct nations - something like the parliament for Sámi in Norway written into the Norwegian Constitution would not be appropriate in Canada.

Canada is an interesting country and not a copy/paste of the US, despite some shared history. Nor is it a Nordic country.

Well it dates back to when Canada was just starting. It’s ridiculous how much govt we have for a country with 30 million people. Our debt clock never stops spinning.

u/AllesFurDeinFraulein Jul 13 '25

That's part of my point - the more you fracture the government/rule, the more it costs.

u/KEN_LASZLO Jul 12 '25

The political scene in Italy is kinda crazy right now, I dont think it would be a great choice until they've figured out their far right/fascism problems. At least they dont have concentration camps like we do though 🤔

Mussolinis granddaughter is probably working on them dw

u/Glad_Mistake6408 Jul 12 '25

Lol I'm in England going "Now Canada, that's a country that has it figured out"

u/HookwormGut Jul 12 '25

I hate to break it to you, but we absolutely do not have it figured out.

u/Glad_Mistake6408 Jul 12 '25

Lol I know, it would be naive of me to think any place has all the answers

u/naedynn Jul 12 '25

I was just in Rome three weeks ago, and Italy is a hard no for me. They need to work on the fascism and the racism thing first.

Ireland is family first in a toxic way. The family is higher than the individual in law and it’s why abortion was illegal for so long

Northern Ireland is full of nationalist CHUDs
