The Happiest Countries In The World


The United Nations General Assembly has just released its second annual World Happiness Report, measuring happiness and well-being in countries around the world to help guide public policy.

Denmark topped the list of the happiest nations, ousting last year's winner, Iceland. Denmark was followed by Norway, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Sweden.

The United States ranked 17th, behind Mexico, though that was an improvement from last year's 23rd place finish.

The World Happiness Report ranks countries based on six key factors that contribute to well-being, including GDP per capita, healthy life expectancy, someone to count on, perceived freedom to make life choices, freedom from corruption, and generosity.

And in case you were wondering why any of this maters, it turns out happiness helps people live longer, have more productive lives, earn higher wages, and be better citizens in general, according to the report.

Just out of curiosity, given that this is a Canada-centric forum, why did you not mention that Canada came 6th in the list?

Dear forum members,

I have just created a thread titled
Compilation of Landing Experiences

This is for the purpose of setting our expectation right on what we can expect in our initial days in Canada.
This wealth of information is scattered throughout the forum and I thought it would be useful if I could post them in one place.
Please note that this is work in progress. (I guess it will always be)

Here is the link:

If you find any entries that is worth mentioning here, please PM me.

Well, if they still wanna be happy they need to stop letting immigrants move in there, especially from 3rd world countries...
