Annual Demographic Estimates: Canada, Provinces and Territories (Total Population only), 2023
Notice to readers

Table of contents

The estimates released in this publication are based on 2021 Census counts adjusted for census net undercoverage (CNU) and incompletely enumerated reserves and settlements (IERS), to which are added the population growth estimates for the period from May 11, 2021 to the date of the estimate.

These estimates are not to be mistaken with the 2021 Census counts.

Population estimates by age and sex based on the 2021 Census counts, adjusted for CNU and IERS, will be available on February 21, 2024.

The analysis in this publication is based on preliminary data. These data will be revised over the coming year, and it is possible that some trends described in this publication will change as a result of these revisions. Therefore, this analysis should be interpreted with caution.

Most of the components, used to produce preliminary population estimates, are estimated using demographic models or based on data sources less complete or reliable, albeit more timely, than those used for updated or final estimates.
