According to what I saw, there were 2 of the last million tweets from canada, Toronto with 5.5 million people had 0 tweets, this seems highly improbable, perhaps Canada has some sort of privacy laws that prevent their data from showing up?

This map shows only geolocalized tweets. Usually, tweets are geolocalized when they are sent with a mobile.
Also twitter stream don't send 100% of the tweets, it will be to huge. But statically speaking, it should be enough to have a good picture.
May be there are some restrictions in Canada.
This map give us a lot of information about twitter more than the first fun and wow effect. I like that!
