About this data. Adapted from Statistics Canada. This does not constitute an endorsement by Statistics Canada of this product. Canada has no register of people who leave, so emigration figures are Statistics Canada estimates built from tax, benefit and foreign data; recent quarters are preliminary and are revised. These pages describe what happened, using official statistics. They do not predict policy, estimate anyone’s chances, or rank communities. See methods and definitions.
