Article notes this doesn't account for VPNs.

How is that relevant though? Are they only monitoring what's occurring in Canada?

If it's global, then it wouldn't matter. BitTorrent traffic doesn't care what IP it egresses out of.

It's not just limited to Canada, it's limited to a single ISP in Canada posting their traffic stats.
