Oh, come on, OP. Europe is a mere peninsula of the Eurasian continent. While North America is vast, especially when you take into consideration the Arctic territories. What's surprising is that you're surprised.
On the other hand, if you count Greenland as part of Europe, then that could change the picture a little.

No, for real, when I was living in eastern canada it felt like Vancouver was really far away. It is, but not much more than Madrid is from Israel, which do not feel that far away from each other, at lest in my head.
The fact that Canada is a big empty land also makes it feel huge, whereas Europe is crowded.
I am actually surprised at how big Europe is compared to Canada, I really thought it would be half of it east-west, or maybe not further than Calgary when starting east.

The Eurasian Land Mass is vast, Europe is only a political entity not a geographical one besides which Africa is very close to Europe via the Straits of Gibralter. The Eurasian land mass makes Canada and the US look very small.

Yeah. Canada's a huge country.
The difference between Canada and Europe, however, might be that most of Europe is inhabited, while much of Canada is either barely inhabited or uninhabitable.
Most major Canadian cities are the same latitude as Southern Russian cities, not Northern ones. And yes European cities are much higher on the globe than Canadian cities. Even Southern Europe is very much North on the globe.
