Why are people fortunate to live in Canada?
We are fortunate due to the fact that were a peaceful country, even though we participate in wars. We also have plenty of water and next to no famine. Just wanted to add something. I don't live there, but here are a few pros for being a neighbor to the north. Free healthcare, low crime rate, relaxed laws in certain provinces i.e. marijuana legalization in British Columbia.

Nuclear power dominates, which is especially true in Toronto where the Pickering nuclear power plant is right next-door.
Coal is going to be phased out in the next few years for the province and be replaced by more renewables (hydro, wind).
One notable energy generator in Toronto is the wind turbine downtown, which is currently generating enough electricity to power about 250 homes, see: http://www.torontohydro.com/corporate/initiatives/green_power/wind_turbine/index.cfm

Also keep in mind that time of year can make a big difference to travel times. Although the roads are all generally well maintained, it is still mostly single-lane in each direction -- and with a lot of extremely hilly terrain, it can be difficult to safely pass trucks or other slow moving vehicles. If travelling between approx. mid-May to mid-September (particularly on a weekend) you will be sharing these small highways and roads with thousands of other vehicles heading to camps, resorts and cottages.
