Canada dwarfs Peru: about 9,872,102 km² km² against 1,296,279 km² km². At true size Canada is about 7.6× larger — the whole of Peru fits into Canada roughly 7 times.
Canada sits in North America, Peru in South America. On the old Mercator map the latitude gap distorted how large each felt beside the other; at true size the answer is simply 7.6×.
The old map muddied it further: Mercator inflates Canada about 4.1× and Peru about 1×, so on a Mercator-style map this pair appears 30.3× apart instead of the true 7.6×.
Peru fits 7× into Canada.
