So how big is Canada?
Well here is the answer.
Big???
Canada is the second largest country in the world. it is 9.985 million square miles.
That is compared to USSR at 17 million and the USA at 9.83 and China at 9.59 million square miles of land.
How long to drive from one side of Canada to the other?
The most comprehensive answer is to drive from the easternmost point in North America in Cape Spear on Newfoundland’s Avalon Peninsula in Canada all the way to the border with Alaska.
This route covers 8,581 km (5,332 miles) and would take at least 106 hours of pure driving time, including stops for gas.
If you add overnight stops and assume you won’t want to drive more than 800 km (500 miles) on average per day, the drive across Canada will take over 11 days without taking any days off.
