Compared to the US, I’d say they’re extremely socially progressive.
Healthcare, low gender pay gap, higher “minimum” wages (I know there’s no legal minimum most places but there are commonly accepted lowest wages), very low homelessness, very LGBT+ accepting.
Socially progressive enough? Not for my tastes. But it’s a lot better than the US in social systems
