Canada to see rapid growth driven by migration and aging
Canada's population aged 85 and older could triple to as many as 4.3 million by 2073, with overall population reaching a medium-growth forecast of 63 million. Migration will drive growth amid aging and low birthrates, stressing labour, health care, and long term care needs. Regional shifts vary, with British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan gaining share while Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Quebec may shrink.
