Lack of Resilience Index:Lack of Resilience represents the combination of susceptibility to impact and the relative inability to absorb, respond to, and recover from negative impactsthat do occur over the short term. Canada ranks 154 out of 165 on the Lack of Resilience index with a score of 0.2. United States ranks 149 out of 165 onthe Lack of Resilience index with a score of 0.22.

Canada ranks 154 out of 165 on the Lack of Resilience Index. Based on the sub-component scores related to Vulnerability and Coping Capacity, the threethematic areas with the weakest relative scores are Environmental Capacity, Population Pressures and Economic Constraints.

United States ranks 149 out of 165 on the Lack of Resilience Index. Based on the sub-component scores related to Vulnerability and Coping Capacity, thethree thematic areas with the weakest relative scores are Recent Disaster Impacts, Environmental Stress and Economic Constraints.
