I was exaggerating for effect. I know what Norway looks like on the
globe.  Why you want to drag in coastline is beyond me..  I suspect to
somehow imply it is larger than it is...

Norway is 385,170 km2.
Canada is 9,984,670 km2

Do those two numbers even look remotely fucking similar? Canada is 25
TIMES larger.

I'm not a Canadian, I'm a Californian. (A state that is, by the way,
significantly larger than Norway at 423,970 km2.

You think the physical challenges would be similar for a country twenty
five times as large?  Care to share what you are smoking?

Great.. As I said, that's a hell of a lot easier when your country is
SMALL.  Canada's population is a mere 6 times as large.. With 25 times
the area.. It's harder for them.. Towns are much further apart,
distances are MUCH greater, the geography is more extreme. The Canadian
Rockies, alone, comprise 194,000 km2 (about 1/2 the size of Norway).
That's for a single mountain system / range.

I'm not trying to shit on your country or anything, I'm just amazed
you'd imply that the two countries are even remotely similar geographically.
