  1. This is more like a road traffic density map. There are major roads that go all the way to NWT and Yukon.

  2. Of note and as seen in this map

    There are no roads connecting the territory of Nunavut to the rest of Canada (it’s the massive section in the top middle). Only way in is to fly or go by boat when the waters aren’t frozen.

    Yes, shipping costs are frighteningly high

    Tells you a lot about how BC’s population distribution has been affected by its natural environment.

  4. Would be cool to add the US. Wonder if there’s a natural continuation or a noticeable change at the border.

  5. This map is either outdated or is a traffic heat map. There’s a road that connects Tuktoyuktuk on the Arctic coast to the Dempster Highway.

    I love how my province of Nova Scotia is all lit up indigo on the inside and yellow all around it

  7. There’s a single road connecting most of Ontario, East of lake nipigon , to western Canada. There’s basically two roads connecting bc’s lower mainland to everything to the east. And it’s really astounding to me how far south in Ontario the roads just stop. There are reasons for this, some are good reasons, but part of it is really just a lack of investment in infrastructure at a national level and a focus on the wealthy and populated regions.

    Crazy how big Canada is. I live in the yellow of southern Ontario but can still easily find country roads with a pitch black night sky.

    The resolution is poor, but if you zoom in it looks like the road from Nanisivik to Arctic Bay is actually included on this map. There might also be an off-white pixel for Apex to Iqaluit.

  10. Coming from the southern border of Canada, how far north could I get just driving? Could I make it to the arctic circle?

  11. Interesting how Alberta and Saskatchewan are mostly higher population density than Montana to the south.
