The Population Projections for Newfoundland and Labrador are produced by the Economic Research and Analysis Division of the Department of Finance. The projections are generally released in April of each year. The current projections were produced in April 2014. The projections provide population by age (five-year age cohorts) and gender for various geographies in Newfoundland and Labrador until the year 2035. Three different projection scenarios are available. The medium scenario is considered to be the "most likely" scenario and is integrated with government's economic forecast. This scenario is the one used by government for planning purposes.

Between 2001 and 2006, Canada’s population grew by 5.4%. Only two provinces, Alberta and Ontario and three territories registered growth rates above the national average. The three Maritime provinces (Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick) had the smallest population growth, while Newfoundland and Labrador and Saskatchewan experienced population declines. In 2006, about 21.5 million people, almost two-thirds of Canada’s population lived in 33 census metropolitan areas (CMAs). Between 2001 and 2006, the population of these CMAs climbed 6.9%, faster that the national average. Barrie registered the fastest population growth of any CMA (19.2%), followed by Calgary (13.4%), Oshawa (11.6%) and Edmonton (10.4%).

Aboriginal populations are most prominently found in the territories, but also in the north of the provinces. A large proportion of them are in fact found in northern Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Alberta and Quebec. The northwestern coast of British Columbia also has a high percentage of Aboriginal population. Most Aboriginal people in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador live in Labrador.
