The county I live in, is 2200 sq km, with a population density of 24/sq km. This is in Quebec, at 1.5M sq km in size, and beside one of the largest metro areas in Canada, the National Capital Region of Ottawa and Gatineau, 5th or 6th largest.
NL is 423/sq km density, 20x. It is only 40000sq km, or about 18x larger than my county.
Quebec is 35x larger, Canada 230? 240 times larger.
Further point, my municipality is in a populous province, and effectively a suburb of the nations capital.
Lots of places have far lower population densities, and we have parks, and counties larger than the Netherlands.
Lots more area to cover, for sure.
