Spanish term (edited): Para un pais con mucho mas *No*.

Let's hear it for a country that learns how to say *No* more often.

I think that this would capture the sense, given the context you've provided.

"Let's hear it for" is a frequently used idiomatic expression in English meaning "Let's support", "Let's stand up for", etc.

Suerte.
