The Ghostbusting Dominion of British Canuckistan is a colossal, environmentally stunning nation, ruled by Lester Pearson with a fair hand, and renowned for its unlimited-speed roads. Its compassionate, hard-working, intelligent population of 7.861 billion enjoy extensive civil freedoms, particularly in social issues, while business tends to be more regulated.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it is effectively ruled by the Department of Education, with areas such as Religion & Spirituality and Commerce receiving almost no funds by comparison. It meets every day to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ottawa. The average income tax rate is 97%. A powerhouse of a private sector is dominated by the Information Technology industry.

Bicyclists are banned from major roads, protesters are up in arms over new nuclear power stations, new safety regulations require all cars manufactured in British Canuckistan to be bombproof, and young children are regularly seen wagering pocket money at blackjack tables. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. British Canuckistan's national animal is the Moose, which is also the nation's favorite main course, and its currency is the Canuckistan Dollar.

British Canuckistan is ranked 9th in Canada and 2,279th in the world for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 8 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
