My one-track mind

It seems that since yesterday I haven't been able to get past the idea of comparisons of sizes of population units with one another. My new kick seems to be to compare census metropolitan areas (CMAs) with larger units.

Due to popular demand I have now added a few of Canada's smaller, though still sizable, municipalities and CMAs. Presumably if I come up with more comparisons in the coming days you will be able to find them here soon after I have completed compiling the tables.



Errata: Manitoba, with a population of 1 210 547, should appear between Montreal (V) and Ottawa/Gatineau (CMA).

If you are going to include Windypeg, you need to have Womanitoba on the list.

Yes, I somehow managed to miss it, thanks. I have fixed this omission in the original file, which I will try to re-post tomorrow.

Hopefully there aren't any errors, but if you see any please point them out.
