I agree that it makes no sense. Both Orleans and Barrhaven are also separated by non-urbanized land from the central area, but the space for Kanata is "just enough"...

Forget the "population centre" (replaces "large urban") geography. Its an obscure measurement and the reporter somehow came across it and thought it was a proxy for the City of Ottawa. I can't believe though no one looked at the 735,000 figure and thought, yup that sounds right.
The main geographies are CMA, CMA (ON part/QC part), Census Division/Subdivision. Stick with those and you'll be on the same playing field as everyone else.
What's interesting is that the 2015 estimate for Ottawa (City) based on 2011 Census is higher than the unadjusted 2016 Census.
