Those numbers are pretty close to what I came up with for Canada, but
not for the US. However I did not do an exhaustive search but just took
the numbers from the first sight google came up with. Yes by the numbers
I came up with it was actually only 7-8% bigger but I figured I would
round it up to 10%, should have remembered I was posting to nit picking
central. I suppose if I say the population of Canada is slightly greater
than Rhode Island you guys will jump on me about exactly how much
"slightly is".
GRIN!

Yep Canada is only about 10 million square kilometers just 10%

big as you.
USA is 9,631,418 square kilometers. Canada is 9, 976,410 square
kilometers. That makes Canada 344,992 square kilometers larger.
It's early for me to do math, but I think that makes Canada only
about 3.5% bigger.
I wonder if land area is customarily figured at low tide?
