BC, QC, PEI, NS and NL are all not fully 4 lane highways.
Ontario may have the greatest chunk, but NL is not far behind. BC has the issue with building on the mountains.
QC will be fully completed within a few years.
PEI will likely never be twinned.
NS, will likely take several decades.
Name me another country in the world with a 4 lane divided highway that stretches more than 7500 km long, and has a population density of less than 4 people per square km.
The fact is, the upgrading is based on city AADT. It is not based on actual need.

basically, yes.
Australia is very similar, except their east-west roads are even less up to speed.
