miserable, struggling, individuals Canadians have become.
Who are these people? Not me. No one I know personally. You? Not so if you can travel to Europe for months. And it's likely those who you stay with in Europe are of the same socio-economic strata if they can offer to put you up.

Yes things cost quite more and most people are a job-loss away from being miserable (knock on wood). Things look shabbier than before COVID but don't sit there and pretend people are miserable because of Trudeau.
