I’d argue the weather as the biggest one, at least for BC. Northern BC is absolutely beautiful but it’s cold af in the winter and burny as hell in the summer. If we’re talking far north in the territories, I know another issue is infrastructure because it’s much more difficult to build/get stuff up there. Though this meme misses a big part of the Indigenous/Inuit population that lives up there.

Also, this country is just fucking huge, like bigger than I think any of us realize. If our population were to spread out, it would be a very thin spread.
