It's a hard sell not only in Canada or US, quite a bit of Europe has more than enough space as well. "Modern city" is good you want to optimise for dense living

It's a hard sell not only in Canada or US, quite a bit of Europe has more than enough space as well. "Modern city" is good you want to optimise for dense living and certain lifestyles. Yet it fails for quite a few people and then quite a bit of it doesn't make sense. I guess the solution would be to design cities to allow both kinds of people to leave at peace. Personally I like German model. Dense urban centers with liveable country side. Looks like both kinds of people are pretty happy and they can sustain quite a lot of population too.
