Canada has solidified its reputation as one of the world’s safest countries in 2025, attracting visitors and new residents with its high safety standards, low crime rates, and inclusive society.
In a recent Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection (BHTP) report on global travel safety, Canada ranks near the top, reflecting its commitment to a secure and welcoming environment for diverse groups of people.
Canada’s safety ranking is attributed to multiple factors, including its low crime rates and stable infrastructure. Violent crime is rare, and incidents involving firearms are notably infrequent, giving residents and visitors added peace of mind.
In BHTP’s latest report, Canada ranks just behind Norway, underscoring its strong global position in safety. This ranking also highlights Canada’s robust counterterrorism measures, placing the country second only to the United Arab Emirates for preventative policies that reduce the risk of attacks.
The country’s healthcare system contributes significantly to its high safety rating. With a public health model that guarantees access to essential medical care, residents and visitors benefit from top-tier health services. Canada’s provincial and territorial health insurance systems ensure everyone has access to quality healthcare, an essential factor in BHTP’s safety assessment.
Canada’s reliable and efficient transportation network is another aspect of its appeal. With a well-maintained system of roads, highways, and public transit, Canada’s transportation safety ranks highest in the BHTP report. This reputation for safe and accessible transport infrastructure adds to Canada’s attractiveness as a destination for international travelers.
The country’s commitment to inclusivity further enhances its safety profile. According to the Global Gender Gap Report, Canada ranks 25th out of 146 countries, showing strides in gender equity and representation. In addition, Canada remains a welcoming place for 2SLGBTQI+ individuals, who generally feel safe and accepted.
With Canada’s tourism sector contributing $29.6 billion to the economy in 2023, the country’s focus on safety is crucial in sustaining this vital industry. As international travel surges, Canada’s blend of security, hospitality, and quality of life ensures it will continue to attract visitors and newcomers.
