A large part of that land area is not conducive to farming or general use. The Canadian Shield covers about a third of the nation. The Arctic permafrost probably covers another third. You cannot farm in either of these areas and the cost of building roads and infrastructure in or through these areas is very high. Other areas have land that could be used for farming but the season is too short. On the lands that are arable, Canadians are reasonably densely populated.
<span>As to softened immigration process, the percentage of permanent residents (generally recent immigrants) has remained fairly steady at less than or at 1% of the population for at least 50 years. Since the birthrates for multi generational Canadians (Canadians whose grand parents or before were immigrants) is so low, Canada needs immigrants to maintain the population at a sustainable level. Yet the processes have not gotten easier. The most recent iteration of the Immigration act has extended the time required for a landed immigrant to live in Canada before being eligible for citizenship (from three years in five to four years in six).</span>

Major shatter belt regions include; Ukraine, Russia, Balkan, Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Korea, Vietnam, and Sudan.
Explanation:
A shatter belt region is a territory or country faced with internal conflicts among its states or in conflict with another country; with some world powers showing interest in these countries because they want some of their resources, or because they want to dominate them. The above listed countries are major shatter belt regions.
The conflicts;
- Balkan: Russia, Ottoman, and Austro-Hungarian had crossroads in Balkan. Russia wanted a share of the Balkan territory. For this reason, Balkan had to join with some governments to wage wars with Russia.
- Korea and Vietnam: These two countries fought the influence of democratic from Western influence like the United States after the war. These were communist countries that resisted the influence of the United States on them.
- Ukraine and Russia: After the Soviet Union disintegrated, individual states have been fighting for sovereignty. Russia has taken over most of these states but the United States is helping most of the smaller states to resist Russian attacks. Russia took Crimea from Ukraine. Crimea has been given back to Ukraine.
- Syria, Turkey, and Iraq: States in these regions who are divided on ethnic lines have been struggling for independence.
- Sudan: After an election which many believed was not fair there has been tension in this region fueling the South Sudanese Civil war. In 2013, there was a suspected coup, which led to a fight between two parties namely; SPLM-IO and SPLM. SPLM stands for Sudan People's Liberation Movement.
