We live in a beautiful country with a ton of perks and opportunities – but not all provinces are equal! Everything from nature to affordable housing can make a huge difference in how people live and excel – but who considers themselves the luckiest? In a new survey administered by Statistics Canada, provinces with the most satisfied residents were revealed. Here’s who came out on top!

With an astonishing score of 59.7%, Newfound Land has been rated the happiest location in the country, though we can’t say we’re surprised.
