I guess I kind of see going all the way to the maritimes when they're biggest venue is a small hockey arena in Halifax doesn't make sense, but the lack of Quebec seems odd.

Although, it definitely makes me proud as a westerner as I know we've always been huge hip fans out here and four shows in Alberta on a small farewell tour is pretty awesome!

I think you're really underestimating how difficult it is to move a modern stadium rock concert. Not to mention the toll of travelling on the acts themselves.
