That was an amazingly ignorant thing to say. Canada has no national highways and nothing even remotely close to the Interstate network. They're all maintained, designed and numbered by the individual provinces, even within the Trans-Canada system, and very few freeways cross between provinces. Route numbers in BC, for example, are sequential save for 99; in Ontario, they're all three-digit and the first digit indicates the type of route; and in Quebec, the numbering and design considerations have more in common with mainland France than anything else in North America.
