This includes things like pubs, cafés, public parks and public squares. Has anywhere in Canada caught up to creating local spaces where it is expected that the general public would hang out for long periods of the day without being asked to move along?
I think the issue is time - we have less time to socialize, whether that is an extended lunch or lack of vacation days/time off compared to Europeans
