Australia's bigger than Antarctica, and if you don't care about that "canal crap" then there are only really two continents bigger than it.

Continents are mostly a cultural subdivisions, not based on geology, it's pointless to debate about it. Good video on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrsxRJdwfM0

I don't know what do you mean, I think there are 6 continents, and canals doesn't matter.
