Canada’s population will reach a major milestone today – 40 million people – and everyone with an internet connection can watch it happen in real time.
Statistics Canada’s website features a Canada population clock (real-time model) which records births, deaths, immigration, emigration and inter-provincial migration as each happens (is modeled).
As of 9:40 a.m. today there were 39,999,708 people in Canada – that number climbs or drops, moment by moment, with each event.
