You conveniently forgot immigration. Canada alone has added 500.000 people to their populace since the beginning of the year.

Immigration Numbers alone are Wörth nothing. How many people emigrated. How many people died? Tell me how the Population Numbers chnaged per years instead If Just looking at Immigration.

Just shy of 1% of people die each year (~389,000 people) but the birth rate is just over 1%. That means all immigration counts towards the pop increase

Well since Canada only has a slightly declining natural population rate, not many in comparison to births?

They added 500.000 people to their populace since the beginning of the year. The births are on top of that.

It‘s not true that immigration numbers are worth nothing. Immigration happens mostly in densely populated areas, thereby further increasing home prices.

Conveniently replying to something I never said. Clever.

You‘re right.

My point still stands.
