Why I prefer to live here.&lt;p&gt;This thread sums it up nicely.&lt;p&gt;No matter how down-on-my-luck I get back in Canada, I will always have a safety net. I can always walk into a hospital and be treated. I can take time off when I&amp;#x27;m sick. I get time off if I have a kid. It&amp;#x27;s the &lt;i&gt;law&lt;/i&gt; here and not just best effort by employers. It&amp;#x27;s for everyone and not just the rich.</text></comment>

While many people here can remote into their tech job, there are many people who simply do not have such privilege, and those are often the people who make your food and drinks. I too have mostly worked food service jobs, out of a job and looking for one now, and as soon as coronavirus hit the news, I knew that I would be eating out a lot less now because what the Twitter posts describe are completely accurate from my experience. I lived it.</text></comment>
