A little anticlimactic now that we've gone over the big number, but this dashboard gives a nice slowly ticking view of the data.

That’s really cool!
Love the little bar graphs filling up

Soon to be 4 more. Moving my family to BC in August!

This is all an estimate however, right? Seeing as they only do a census every 5 years, I don't see how this can be anything but. Admittedly the last one would have been only 2022 so the data is pretty recent, but that's still only a static data point.

Sure, it's impossible to know with total accuracy what the true number of people is, but based on census data/birth and death rates/immigration and emigration stats, they've got a pretty reliable way of calculating an estimate.

I wonder what error those estimates have, expressed in days? Maybe a dumb way of expressing an estimate error band, but if they're saying "40 million today" knowing +/- how many days would be interesting. Or maybe it's just me.

Well how about that. How often do you get to tick the ten million place? Never before in my lifetime, anyways.
