More Conservative Country

Oddly enough, the US has a food stamp program.  Canada has no such program , we don't even help poor families with school lunches. I don't think Australia has a food stamp program either.

There has to be some kind of aid to the poorest... right?

Unemployment benefits probably are more generous than in the US (though much less generous than in Europe).

Australia is more conservative, but we shouldn't underestimate Canada. There aren't many countries where someone like Stephen Harper could stay in power for a decade. And while the "left-wing party" usually dominates the Liberals aren't really that left-wing. I think that Canada is more conservative than most Western countries.
