There is very little plant or animal life to sustain a human community. The extremes of climate and temperature make living there undesirable and non-productive, agriculturally and in other industries.

Much of North Africa is very arid, rocky, inhospitable country. It's hard to farm or even find water. This does not encourage people to settle there. Most of the settlements are on the coast where it's easier to grow crops.

Is it correct to say Canada is a country of low population?

More correct to say that Canada is a country of low population DENSITY. Most of Canada's people live in the south-eastern corner, with very few per square kilometre in the cold northern regions, which gives a low average population density. There are lots of geographically tiny countries with lower total populations, such as Luxembourg and Monaco, but they have much greater population densities.
