Canada's population clock (real-time model)

From Statistics Canada, Canada's population clock is an interactive learning tool for all Canadians. It uses the agency's quarterly demographic estimates to give Canadians a sense of the pace of Canada's population renewal. The population clock also models how often, and where, births, deaths and migrations are occurring.
