Unrelated to the other question: any geoguesser?
My best guess is Kluane Lake, Alaska Highway through the Yukon. But Google Street view says there is more taiga there.
I don't think the US/Canada usually does that style of power pole, with three phases on a crossarm and no neutral below.
Barriers on what looks like a pretty low-traffic low-risk road too.
I would think somewhere Scandinavia or central Europe. NZ wouldn't put barriers like that up.
Rock wall near bottom of picture screams old.
The house is also something you definitely wouldn't see in NZ, I also think Scandinavia, specifically Norway since the others don't really have mountains by the water like that.
I’m from Vesterålen in Northern Norway and this is giving me huge home vibes.

Never been, but would like to visit someday.
Well, that's certainly the answer.
I wouldn't have thought you'd want to put a building quite that close to the waterfront even in a Fjord, but apparently they did.
The house and pole line would fit in Quebec backcountry place or the maritimes, but the rock walls and the mountains don't fit as well.
Looks very Norwegian, and there seems to be a crossing on the road used to prevent sheep from leaving the area (while cars still can drive over it) which is also something we have in Norway.
Those crossings we do also have in NZ, a country with many sheep
