It is evident that Canada would in fact be one of the top five happiest nations in
the world. From our beautiful landscape to our free healthcare, it can already turn
an upset person into an ecstatic individual. Majority would think that wealth and
Caribbean weather are the keys to a happy life, when in fact Canada among the
other four are all wintry nations. The only country which is not among the
wealthiest in the world on this list is Norway. This goes to show money is not the
trigger for happiness. I believe personally, the rich culture and heritage which is
celebrated in each of these countries brings vibrant and exciting life for every

season of the year. In conclusion; location, government policies, and spirit are all
a nation needs in order to thrive and be proud.

Through the article it can be depicted that the federal government has kept in
mind first nations and Inuit problems since the historical days of the residential
schools. However, it does not show there has been much appreciation financially
set aside from the residential schools and other grants. What this refers to are the
basic needs which provinces and municipalities are seemingly receiving for

regular society. This is a necessity, however putting the first nations community at
the bottom of that list and depriving them of common things for survival including
fresh water, and basic food items seems to be an open neglect. With future
negotiations between chiefs and upper politics, it can only be hoped the
communities which still strive to hold their locations and heritage shall receive
equal balance along with the other candidates.
