Not only are we the second largest country by land mass, but according to a report put together by U.S. News and the University of Pennsylvania, we are ranked as the second best country overall.

In a review of 80 different countries with more than 21,000 people surveyed from 36 different regions, Canada was calculated to be the second best, with an overall ranking of 9.7, followed shortly behind the number one spot, which was secured by Switzerland for the second year in a row with a perfect 10.0 score.

The U.S., not surprisingly, has fallen a great lengths. In 2016, they ranked in at number four, but this year they have fallen to seventh place. Most people in the study cited the recent election of Donald Trump and the 2016 election as influencing their overall ranking of the country, citing the “toxic tones” as influencing them to lose respect for the typically perceived powerhouse.

Canada, however, ranked 9.6 for citizenship, 10.0 for quality of life and 8.5 for being considered to be open for business.

The other top ranking countries for the report included:

• United Kingdom (#3)
• Germany (#4)
• Japan (#5)
• Sweden (#6)
• Australia (#8)
• France (#9)
• and Norway (#10)
