Land is not yet a limited resource in Canada.
Your first sentence of "Actually we would have a larger world carry capacity if we reduced meat consumption" is not correct. You cannot deny that efficient meat production has increased the carrying capacity of the world, even if it "could" be replaced by something you see as more efficient (but that is debatable also). That is just the way it is.
