As a Canadian who has ideas of building an off grid cabin in the woods, what would be a more meaningful life?

The stereotypical poor American working menial jobs into their senior years without affordable healthcare doesn’t sound much better…

Also as a Canadian currently living in an urban area, I want to move to the woods so I have the room to build things and innovate regularly. I don't have enough land for a workshop here. Outside of maybe software that you can pack onto a personal computer, you're not going to be able to do much innovating without much space.
its a discussion about the economy, not the quality of life and the accuracy of the aspirations
