Canadian cities and suburbs are lot more dense than American cities and suburbs probably because city planners know there are public transit riders and so zone more density.

Well had Canada been more car culture the cities in Canada and suburbs probably would be more like the US.


The suburbs in Southern Ontario and BC are more dense compared to southern US. Well oblivious rest belt at time where zone dense because that was pre WW2.

If the US own Canada all the suburbs would be way worse than Calgary.


Just to show you how bad the sprawl is base on Wikipedia Dallas has 1,304,379 people in 339.604 sq mi well Mississauga has 717,961 people in 112.91 sq mi

Tulsa has 413,066 people in 201.85 sq mi

Well Fort Worth has 918,915 people in 347.27 sq mi

Brampton has 656,480 people in 102.66 sq mi

I’m sure Brampton and Mississauga has lot more transit ridership than Tulsa, Fort Worth or Dallas.
