Update Canadian population

[edit]

Update Canadian population from 40,769,890 (2024 Q1) to 41,012,563 (2024 Q2). It's from the same source updated (Population estimates, quarterly). ZeusMinerva25 (talk) 12:54, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Done as seen here..... Drop archive link as this has been a live web page for 10 years and an archive page will not verify the updated information.Moxy🍁 19:43, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I reverted because, as happened last time, the archive in the citation was not updated. Last time I fixed it myself—this time, please update the archive attached to the citation when updating the population. —Joeyconnick (talk) 21:39, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good we'll see who will get to it. Moxy🍁 21:44, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Perfect thank you..... I take it there's some sort of tool for archive websites? Moxy🍁 20:47, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes there definitely is. It's all over Wikipedia. (There are others but that is the main one.) —Joeyconnick (talk) 18:58, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

GDP per capita is smaller due to current population

[edit]

Current government estimate puts Canada's population at 41.4 million, likely to cross 42 million by January 2025 with current growth rates. But due to the large amount of immigration being ethnic Jatt Sikhs, the GDP per capita has gone down due to dead-end job salaries in most positions and more people. 2605:8D80:405:84B1:7424:BB2:558B:4A6A (talk) 17:28, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

some basic data for you Moxy🍁 17:47, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction Edit request

[edit]

Canada now has an official border with Denmark on Hans island, I think this should be included here (see: https://bigthink.com/strange-maps/hans-island-border/) Cjohnson70 (talk) 03:18, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Already included in the Geography section of the article. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 03:24, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change needed in the sub-section on Religion

[edit]

In the sub-section on Religion (Section: Demographics) there's the indication that the monarch holds the title of Defender of the Faith. This is no longer the case since the proclamation issued on 8 January 2024. ZeusMinerva25 (talk) 17:31, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Removed https://gazette.gc.ca/rp-pr/p2/2024/2024-01-31/html/si-tr4-eng.html

the maple leaf is not a legal symbol of canada ,so is there any official evidence that the maple leaf is actually legally on the flag? UnsungHistory (talk) 15:32, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

pls see National symbols of Canada or this source. Moxy🍁 15:43, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's not an official symbol of Canada on its own, but it's legally and officially adopted as part of the flag as your source clearly states. It's just not a legal symbol if it's just a maple leaf. Canterbury Tail talk 20:08, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
