Birmingham does not have more canals. It has longer canals, giving more length overall.
Birmingham 35 miles
Venice 26 miles
Venice does have a very dense network of canals, it is a tiny place in comparison to Birmingham, the whole of Venice would fit within Brum's Middleway with room to spare. In Venice canals are everywhere, Not the case in large Birmingham.
