minus-squareImplyingImplications@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up10·10 months agoLooks like absolute number to me. Searching for “canada historical population growth” shows sites like Statista and Macrotrends which show 1% increases pretty much every year. StatsCan seems to only show one year at a time.
