Canada has 3 out of 4 currently operating nuclear plants in Ontario. France has them scattered throughout the country. I believe that’s why Ontario is specifically mentioned.

Ontario is also twice the size of France and 1/4 the population; they're at least in the same order of magnitude. I'd call it a reasonable comparison.

> Ontario is also twice the size of France

You certainly mean Metropolitan France*. France is at least 10 times the size of Ontario.

He means geographic size. Ontario has twice the land area of France.
