Do the "total area" and the "water" area include Hudson Bay? And do they include parts of the three oceans bounding Canada? If the latter are included how far from land do they extend? Michael Hardy (talk) 00:46, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: Yes... that makes sense, as a population increase is not necessarily a positive change in all contexts. —Joeyconnick (talk) 17:19, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

message: Hi. I noticed that the demographics list of the Canadian population is missing (or was removed) from the top of the main page on Canada. Is there a reason for this? I remember it listed there not too long and is shown when you click on the "Canadian" link under Demonym. I think this is a good way to instantly understand who the Canadian people are so I think it should be included back in. 47.23.177.234 (talk) 15:51, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

message: Under the "Government and Politics" section, change "centre-left leaning Liberal Party of Canada" to "centre to centre-left leaning Liberal Party of Canada". This reflects the consensus in other articles that the Liberal Party of Canada is as much (if not more so) centrist as it is centre-left.

message: In the table titled "Largest metropolitan areas in Canada" there is an error: the column titled "Municipal pop." should say "Metropolitan pop.", as these are all populations of metropolitan areas. 
For example, Montreal's 4.3 million is its metropolitan population as per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_census_metropolitan_areas_and_agglomerations_in_Canada, compared to its municipal population of 1.8 million as per List of the largest municipalities in Canada by population. As the side is extended-protected I couldn't quickly figure out how to do it myself or make an edit request. Thanks! 142.126.42.190 (talk) 22:48, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
