Statistics Canada's March 18 preliminary estimates confirmed Canada's first annual population decline on record, dropping 0.2% to 41.47 million by January 1, 2026, driven by a sharp fall in non-permanent residents amid federal immigration cuts announced in the November 2025 2026-2028 Immigration Levels Plan. That policy slashed new temporary resident targets by 43% to 385,000 for 2026 while holding permanent resident admissions steady at 380,000, responding to housing strains and public pressure. The Parliamentary Budget Officer's February analysis projected flat growth for the year due to these restrictions and negative natural increase. Traders' 61.5% consensus on a full-year decline reflects expectations of sustained policy impacts through Q4 2026 quarterly estimates, absent major reversals.
