Speaking of flashbacks to almost 20 years ago, Paul Krugman used to talk about what he called Flatland and the Zoned Zone. The same forces were at work then, they've just gotten steadily worse and I guess as suburban sprawl took over across the land, almost every place in Canada where it makes any sense to build (and many where it doesn't) got itself to some extent "zoned."
