Canada actually has paid sick leave for a few years now. If I remember correctly, it’s federally mandated 10 paid sick days and 3 paid personal days.
As someone else mentioned, that doesn't cover everyone. It benefits "federally regulated employees"; but it's a good start.
BC NDP premiere John Horgan (RIP) gave all workers five paid sick days after Covid. Every province should.
Edit: fixed my mistake.
