Canada's population clock (real-time model)
This data visualization product provides information on the pace of population renewal in Canada. The web page shows a real-time model of population growth in Canada. The components of population growth are modelled in order to adjust the population of the country, provinces and territories. Moreover, a map is showing in which provinces and territories the demographic events are occurring.
Data modelled in real time on this web page are not to be confused with Census counts and demographic estimates, which are the measures used to determine the size of the population in the context of various governmental programs.

It is also possible to search for a particular first name by sex at birth to see the historical evolution of the first name in terms of frequency, the proportion of children with the chosen name and the annual rank.
