Answer:
According to the last census conducted in 2016, the population of Canada consists of 35,151,728 people according to Statistics Canada.
The demographic increase has been accelerated in recent decades, thanks to immigration and the natural growth of the immigrant population, in contrast to the increasingly aging population of European origin. So far this century, the Canadian population increased by approximately 13%.
An important percentage of the population is concentrated in the metropolitan areas of large industrial cities, while vast regions (with colder climates) have minimal densities or are not fully inhabited. About 80% of the Canadian population lives within 150 kilometers of the US border. A similar percentage live in urban areas, focusing mainly on the cities of Quebec, Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton. Curiously, these areas are the ones with the largest immigrant population.
