Canada's potential is gigantic, Canadians just can't get out of their own way, that's all.
Sure, but aren't people essentially voting with their feet? By and large, it seems like people would rather live more modestly in a city than live more comfortably in a small town and I'm not sure how you really overcome that.

And not to stereotype too much, but I don't think more isolated small centres are necessarily the most inviting places for new immigrants.
