2019-10-01 – Immigration drove Canada's largest real number of population increase in history in the last year according to the latest figures from Statistics Canada.

Canada's population rose by 531,497 to 37,589,262 between July 2018 and July 2019, with immigration accounting for 82.2 percent of the growth.
