While both countries have fantastic universities, schools and overall education infrastructure. There are also excellent job opportunities that both these places offer. Education standards are almost similar and hence both the countries provide the same quality education in all fields.

However, Canada again has a slight edge over Australia because of its much more affordable educational institutions.

Which country is better to live in- Australia or Canada?

This again comes down to personal taste. Both countries have excellent culture, friendly population, world-class infrastructure and beautiful scenery.

However, our vote for this one goes to Australia, for the following reasons:

  • While most of Canada experiences freezing winters, the temperatures in Australia are mild and forgiving throughout the year.
  • Australia’s sporting culture is unmatched in the world, and the laidback, happy culture is a dream for many.
  • The natural beauty, beaches, mountains, wildlife and overall variety of leisure activities that Australia provides is hard to beat.

Where is it easier to get a job?

Both countries have excellent job opportunities and working culture. One advantage you get with Australian PR is that you can also work in New Zealand. The pay in Australia is slightly higher than in Canada. But, when it comes to job searching, none of the country is that easy. Depending upon categories, jobs are available in both the countries. However, the job would be relevantly easy to find in Canada due to more occupations in demand for the skilled workers.
