For one, the world population and Canada's population is growing rapidly. More land will be needed and the demand will only increase with time.
Canada’s growth rate is 0.73% and the vast majority of that growth is in the large urban centres. The worlds population growth has also slowed considerably (like half) since it peaked in the late 60’s.
Resource development is the killer, and as you get closer to urban centres, it’s when farmland is worth a whole lot more cut into acreages.
