I have no doubt that is true. This year we were in two very poor places and I would say the generally level of happiness was much higher there than Canada. One place that I would expect would be happy is Las Vegas but anytime I've been there I see the most stressed out grim faced people.

I wonder who is more depressed now? Vive la démocratie ! Message #6997 from Tom Clarke at 12/20/2013 10:51:06 AM Polls suggest that the French are more depressed than Ugandans or Uzbekistanis, and more pessimistic about their country's future than Albanians or Iraqis. A global barometer of hope and happiness puts the French second to bottom of a 54-country world ranking, behind austerity-battered Italians, Greeks and Spaniards, and ahead only of Portugal. economist.com
