As a Canadian I agree. I lived in a popular area a few hours from Vancouver for 20 years, we had power outages all the time, this year there was 2 in a row that lasted long enough that everything in my freezer went bad. This area is also on boil water advisory 5-8 months a year. We also have plenty of native reservations with undrinkable water. None of that feels 1st world to me.
