# List of number-one singles of 2006 (Canada)

The following lists the number one best-selling singles in Canada in 2006 which was published in Billboard magazine under the Hits of the World section. During January and February of that year, only songs released as physical singles qualified for this chart. During this period, the singles market in Canada was very limited in both scope and availability and, in many cases, these songs received little or no radio support. For tracks other than those by American Idol or Canadian Idol winners, sales were likely to be less than 1,000 per week.
Starting in March, however, Nielsen Entertainment Canada created the Canadian Digital Songs Chart, which tracked sales of digital music downloads, and Billboard stopped publishing the Canadian Singles Chart in favor of the new chart. Despite this, the physical singles chart continued to be published on Jam!.
These two singles charts were the only ones Canadians had until June 2007, when the Canadian Hot 100 was released to the public. Both also list other big hits in the sales chart.
Note that Billboard publishes charts with an issue date approximately 7–10 days in advance.
