      This was really fun! As a Swede, I have never heard or met another Swede who talks or spreads bad things about Switzerland. But as usual there are individuals whose greatest pleasure is to spread hatred between people on social media. Is it due to limited insight or some kind of complex?

      There’s another funny neighborly competition - Between 1978-2022 there was the “liqueur war” between Canada and Denmark over the Greenlandic Hans island. (Legally Greenland belongs to Denmark)
      Sometimes it was called the whisky/schnaps war..

      @@nage7438Grüezi, ciao bonjour. OMG really? Really sorry to hear that. Well, I went to Canada in 2016 and I did not see those things. I went to Quebec City for an event, I also travelled til Tadussac to see the whales. On the way I saw so many beautiful landscapes. I didnt see drug problems or violence, I felt very safe in comparison to my Latin America(A place I love but where I have to be very careful). Regarding costs, I think the world has become a very expensive place. I was in Switzerland last weekend and I also struggled a bit. Here in Sweden as well, thankfully I am on a scholarship. But I guess these 2 countries are super worth it. Especially, I am a student and tech entrepreneur, it is great here to meet inspiring people. And the landscapes! I cant wait to see winter scenery!

      As a Swiss, I'm telling you, you should finally get IKEA furniture, not that cheap stuff from the Far East, because it's better? No, because the Swiss army knife fits in there 😜
      Seriously, I've had pocket knives since the end of my school days, not necessarily for assembling furniture, but every now and then you have a situation where a screw is loose (I don't mean the one in your head 😂) and you need to cut something (preferably Cheese or sausage on a sunny lake shore). And what almost only Swiss soldiers can do, open cans in no time (the best and easiest can opener, I've now convinced my daughter of that).

Nope, we don’t have any “Swedish cheese;” Swiss Miss hot cocoa mix. Nope, we don’t have any Swedish hot cocoa mixes on our store shelves; Ricola. Again, Sweden is left at the starting gate.
