Well there's the list. Feel free to try and find another list that says otherwise.

To compare just how huge the island of Great Britain is, the largest island in the USA is Hawai'i, which is slightly bigger than North Yorkshire.

1/5th of those are Canadian islands. Vancouver Islaod and PEI, Cape Breton must be right next on the list as well as the rest of the Arctic Archipeligo. Canada ... 2 million lakes and at least that many islands.
