US News and World Report collaborated with the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania and global marketing and communications services company WPP to compile the data used in the overall Best Countries Ranking, in which Canada placed second.

Different attributes and countries were presented in a survey of over 17,000 people worldwide. This data was also used to compile different sub-rankings, such as the most progressive countries.

Participants had to decide if they associated certain characteristics with a particular nation. The survey took place between March 17 and June 12, 2023.
