That all makes a lot of sense, and I definitely don't expect growth to slow down thatttt much but it is worth acknowledging that growth over the past year has been wild. Q1 2022 - Q1 2023, Nova Scotia grew 3.5%. Keep that up for even more three years and you're talking about a difference of 80,000 people relative to growing at 1% per year.

(Q1 2026 population would be 1.07M at 1% over three years, while it would be 1.15M at 3.5%)

Here's to hoping we can keep it up!
