Why? It’s an increase of 1%
Only if it's evenly distributed. Canada has a population of ~39 million, but most immigrants are settling in one of two major areas.
YoY population increase of 1% is quite difficult to sustain, it puts considerable stress on already stressed markets and social systems.
Annual. Which is 80% over 80 years, a single lifetime. Unless there's a plague or the Mongols invade, such shifts rarely happen.
