Quebec is the happiest province in Canada

According to a study by the Angus Reid Institute, Quebec is the happiest province in Canada.

The study found that 74% of Quebecers describe themselves as “pretty happy” or “very happy” with their lives.

The provinces with the lowest happiness scores are Saskatchewan (53%), Ontario (55%) and Alberta (60%).

Overall, 62% of Canadians say they are happy with their lives. (For the complete table of results, please see page 1 of the report here.)

“Finances, stress, relationships — all of these play a role in how a person views their own life. Canadians were asked to think about their life in general and tell us where they fit on a scale of happiness. A small number occupy the fringes, with 1 in 10 saying they’re either ‘very happy’ or ‘not happy at all.’ Income plays a significant role in happiness, with those in the lowest income group twice as likely as those in the highest to say that they’re ‘not happy at all.'”
