They are more supportive of their mining sector, but they too have been "woke" on the environment and regulation.
But it is hard to fathom how badly Justin and Friends have screwed up a Country which has so much promise as Canada.

Housing is much closer and varies a lot depending on location. Still a little higher than Canada but just like Canada there is still housing that is affordable outside of cities
Woke issues again vary depending on location just like Canada
Fuel is higher not drastically though. Closer to the higher price regions in Canada. If I remember right it was just over 2$ a liter where my buddy is in NSW. Again varies by region
The wife and I have friends/family in both NZ and Australia so we get to hear directly from residents not just stats
