Estimated number of persons on July 1, by 5-year age groups and gender, and median age, for Canada, provinces and territories.

In 2022, Canada had a population density of about 4.43 people per square kilometer. The country has one of the lowest population densities in the world, as the total population is very small in relation to the dimensions of the land. Canada has a relatively stable population size, consistently with a growth of around one percent compared to the previous year. A small population in a large territory In terms of total area, Canada is the second largest country in the world. Its ten provinces and three territories extend from the Pacific to the Atlantic and northward to the Arctic Ocean, and this in total covers about 9.9 million square miles. The most densely populated area of Canada is what’s known as the Quebec City-Windsor Corridor in the provinces of Quebec and Ontario. Canada has a degree of urbanization of around 81 percent, because most Canadians prefer to live in cities where opportunities for work and leisure are in close proximity to each other and conditions are less rough.

As of March 2024, ******** was the most used social network across all Canadian provinces, with online users from Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland and Labrador being the most likely to report using the social platform. The Manitoba region had the highest share of Instagram users, with ** percent of respondents accessing the platform. Facebook Messenger was also popular throughout all provinces. In addition, ******* was most popular in British Columbia and Alberta, with ** percent and ** percent of respondents using the platform in each province.

Canada's healthcare system is supported by a vast network of hospitals, with 1,087 facilities spread across the country as of 2024. Ontario leads the way with 319 hospitals, reflecting its status as the most populous province. This extensive infrastructure plays a crucial role in delivering healthcare services to Canadians, contributing to the nation's commitment to universal health coverage. Hospital infrastructure and expenditure The density of hospital beds has been decreasing over time. In 1980, there were 6.75 hospital beds per thousand inhabitants, but by 2022, this figure had dropped to 2.53 beds per thousand population. Despite this reduction, healthcare expenditures remain significant, with hospitals accounting for 96 billion Canadian dollars in 2024. Physicians are also expected to account for nearly 50 billion Canadian dollars in health expenditures in the same year. Patient care and common procedures The average length of hospital stay in Canada has remained relatively stable in recent years, standing at 7.3 days in the fiscal year 2023 to 2024. This figure has fluctuated only slightly since 2010, with the shortest average stay recorded in 2017/18 at 6.8 days. In terms of procedures, caesarean section deliveries are the most common inpatient surgery, with 110,659 performed in 2023/24. This aligns with childbirth being the primary reason for hospital stays in Canada. Knee and hip replacements follow as the second and third most frequent inpatient surgeries, respectively, indicating a significant demand for orthopedic care among the Canadian population.

Contained within the 3rd Edition (1957) of the Atlas of Canada is a map that shows the density of the Canadian population for 1951. The first map display Western provinces, while the second map concentrates on southern Ontario and the Maritimes. Only the most populous areas are covered. Population density is illustrated by denoting the number of inhabitants per square mile. It shows a significant difference in the population distribution across Canada, mainly in urban and metropolitan areas. The cities with greater inhabitants are clusters within Capital cities, and a even larger concentration south, near the U.S. border, in particular along ocean or inland coastlines.

In Ontario, British Columbia and in the three Prairie Provinces live 80% of the Aboriginal population of Canada. The most populous province, Ontario, is also the one with the highest number of Aboriginal people, (about 142 000). These people are often integrated in the large centres in the south of the province. British Columbia has almost as many Aboriginal people: 140 000. They are concentrated on Vancouver Island and around Vancouver, but can also be found almost everywhere in this province, which has the largest number of Indian reserves and settlements. In the Prairie Provinces, there are about 363 000 Aboriginal people, divided between Manitoba (128 700), Alberta (122 900) and Saskatchewan (111 300).

Alberta is by far the largest oil producing province in Canada. In 2024, around *** million barrels of oil were produced in Alberta every day. Heavy oil, such as non-upgraded bitumen, made up the majority of oil sourced from this region.

Canada is an aging society. In 2006, 13.7% of the total population of Canada was 65 years and over. This proportion was 9.7% only twenty five years ago in 1981. During the same period, the proportion of the population that was very old increased at a more rapid pace. For example, between 1981 and 2006 the proportion of the population that was 80 years and over rose from 1.7% to 3.7%. The number of people in this age group topped the 1 million mark (at 1.2 million) for the first time in 2006. In 2006, the population of Saskatchewan was the oldest in the country with 15.4% of the population 65 years and over. It also had the largest proportion of the oldest old, where one out of every 20 Saskatchewan residents was 80 years of age and over. The national average was one in 27. Saskatchewan's situation is unique, in that it has both the largest proportion of seniors and one of the largest proportions of children among the provinces. This is attributable to several factors: higher fertility compared to any other Canadian province due to a large Aboriginal population; a life expectancy that was, until quite recently, one of the highest in the country; and substantial losses of young adults migrating to Alberta to find employment. In general, Atlantic Canada (Newfoundland, and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick) and British Columbia had an older age structure population (14-15% in the age group 65 and over) compared with the national average, once again a reflection of their lower fertility rates.

Over the 2015-2018 period, nearly ******* people aged over ** defined themselves as something other than heterosexual in Canada: ******* identified as lesbian or gay, while ******* identified as bisexual. The provinces with the largest number of non-heterosexuals people were Ontario and Quebec, which are also the most populous provinces in the country. In addition, with the exception of Quebec, bisexual people outnumbered lesbian or gay people in all provinces.
