I think the magic of the Mercator projection is making Canada look
bigger
than it really is.... isn't it?
Perhaps a bit.
Australia is 7,617,930 sq km in area, Canada is 9,093,507 sq. km, or
just
about 20% larger.
I realize I could have looked that up, too. But it was late and I was
lazy. That's very interesting, I wouldn't have suspected that Canada
is larger. Thanks!
