From April to Canada day (July 1st) the population of Canada increased by .36% or 120,800 people. Stats Canada says that Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba have the greatest population growth rate of all the provinces in Canada. The reason the three provinces populations are increasing is because the natural increase is increasing (Births minus Death). There are also many reasons also suggested such as, many natural resources, lots of jobs and business opportunities, as well as lots of agriculture and oil.
The increase in population is extremely good for Canada's economy, it puts more money into the economy. There are also many other reasons people may want to move out to the western part of Canada such as the natural scenery. I believe that more people should be populating the west, it provides many jobs, and a very good natural resources are offered in the prairies.
