And most native-born Canadians haven't ever lived in a world where anything else is possible. The reason they only think of SFH is because they only two options that have been open to them are that and small, city centre condos. Kinda like the same way they cannot contemplate getting around town in any way other than using a car. It's hard to comprehend something that you don't even know about.

I don't disagree, but I think you kind of gloss over the difficulty in convincing people that their lifelong belief is wrong.

In the context of politics, it remains political suicide to be honest about this topic. Not because people wouldn't adapt, but because people don't want to adapt.
