In terms of the suburban built form though, you're absolutely right. I don't think a good solution has really been put forward though. On the whole, the density of suburban development has never been as high as it is now, which is a good thing (greenfields aren't consumed as quickly). I just don't really know what you can do short of having a dressed up version of what already exists. (New Urbanism)
I don't know if i would say there has been far more in the core if you look at Orleans/Barrheaven/Kanata there has been a massive amount of development in these areas.
