I've already talked about this in other threads, but for a start ...
Mainland US and Australia are about the same land area ... and Canada is slightly larger.
US Population: 318,605,000
Canada Population: 35,427,524
Australia Population: 23,572,700

Canada's population is 12% of USA's population.
Australia's population 7% of USA's population.
Kind of hard for Canada and Australia to have the same sprawl as the US ... neither are even close USA's population.
Also ...
The US has 34 cities over 500,000 ...... and only 13% of the entire population of US live in those 34 cities.
Canada has 9 cities over 500,000 ...... and 44% of the entire population of Canada live in those 9 cities.
Australia has 6 cities over 500,000 ...... and 64% of the entire population of Australia live in those 6 cities.

There's just no comparison.
And contrary to what some might believe ... Canada is not one great year-round wintery glacier.
