Glad to see this thread as this topic has been on my mind recently. I have my own personal feeling on golf and golfers but yes, golf courses do take up valuable land in specific urban areas in Canada. That land would be better off publicly-owned, developed, or utilized for amenities that the wider public has access to. During a housing crisis and ever-sprawling cities there are specific areas where golf courses could absolutely be removed in favour of planned, affordable housing-targeted developments.
