In Brazil, there's no such thing as drills. In Australia, I didn't have any either. Neither did my brother in Canada. Japan has earthquake drills.

AFAIK, the US is the only developed country with a systemic school shooting problem

Fire drills and tornado drills are pretty standard though right?

We had fire drills in my work office in Toronto. Never had a tornado drill (but to be fair, I never lived anywhere with high tornado risks)
