I have a quibble with that population density map.
The upper bound of the grading is far too low and some areas far too large for useful comparison.
Toronto's density as per the map expands north past Barrie. That's not reality on the ground. The density drops off quickly north of Highway 7. It also looks as if Toronto is as densely populated as Regina. Again, not really.
Calgary and Edmonton are one homogeneous mass. You'd think it would be the equivalent of the Northeast megalopolis by that map. There's ~250km of sparsely populated farmland (fine, and Red Deer too) between those cities.
It does sort of give an idea of population density, but it definitely is skewed oddly.
