A United Nations survey has found Canada to be the best place in the world to live and various international organizations have recorded that Canada is the best destination for international students worldwide. This assessment was based on Canada’s achievements in terms of educational attainment, life expectancy, national income and general quality of life.
Every year, the survey evaluates the quality of life in 174 countries, using over 200 performance indicators. Canada earned exceptionally high marks for its access to education, high life expectancy (due to the universal health care system), and low crime and violence rates. Best of all for international students, Tuition fees are affordable, and Living costs are comparably lower than in most Western cities. Canada has persistent and consistent political, economic and socio-cultural stability. The education system is monitored and regulated by the provincial government.
