Rob, we used to have loads of them in Southern Ontario as well but they all got swallowed up by the developers. Now there's homes and business parks built on all of them. I can't say I blame the drive-in owners for selling and making good money, but it's sad to see something disappear that so many enjoyed and grew up with. I suppose if someone were to build a drive-in, it would have to be pretty far from any city, otherwise the cost of the land would be prohibitive.
There may be one or two left in Ontario(not sure), but you don't really hear much about them anymore. Up North towards cottage country I recall seeing an overgrown drive-in still in it's pastel paint colours with weeds growing through the pavement, billboard display still up...I guess the owner hadn't run it for years and was just sitting on the property, waiting for the right offer from a land developer.
