I'd be shocked if it wasn't 3 million already.

I know the Valley was around 3.2 million last time I checked.

If Metro-Vancouver hits over 3 mill, that puts the entire Valley between 3.3 and 3.4 million. Crazy!

So weird to see "Pacific Ocean" just to the left of Toronto. If only!

Inflation looking sticky, unfortunately. 3.4% in December, up from November's 3.1%.

Yup, and an updated map would probably need to devote one of NB's hexagons to Moncton now. SJ and Freddy are still just under the 100k mark, but they are growing so that could happen for a 2030s version of the map.

I'm a bit impressed NB has a decent sized chunk of the population map anyways. We are rapidly closing in on 900k now, which is still around 1/50th of the country, but we still seem small.

Not surprising. Back when inflation was higher in 2022/2023, economists were saying that getting the final 1-2% of excess inflation back down to the 2% target would be the hardest and most painful, seems that this is ringing true. I don’t suspect it will get much better anytime soon with oil prices being forecast to go up, in addition to the issues happening at both the Suez Canal/Red Sea and the Panama Canal.

The base effects of gasoline dropping a ton last year are showing themselves, those are some of the main drivers of the small increase MOM.

Ahem...

I'm glad you finally understand what a base effect is though.

I’ve always been fascinated with New Brunswick.

It looks like the clustered hexagons must be an urban region over 200,000, not 100,000.

If it were 100,000 Kamloops, Chilliwack and Nanaimo would also get their own outlines in BC, for example.

Each hexagon is only ~100k, but looking at the graph now, it seems they only group hexagons into CMAs when it's 2 or more Hexes, so yeah, it'll probably be another decade or so before Moncton tops out at 200k and gets its own outline.

Which does make NB unique in another way; it's the only multi-hex region that doesn't have an outlined CMA, due to the lack of a true Alpha city in the province. (Moncton's close but SJ and Freddy keep it in check, nipping at its heels

)

Edit: new info

Metro-One · #**453** Posted **Jan 17, 2024, 1:15 PM**

It’s over 200,000 that gets a CMA shown on this graphic.

KnoxfordGuy · #**454** Posted **Jan 17, 2024, 1:17 PM**

I read some of the posts over again. Got my answer.

In other words, you need to be at the minimum a non-singular number of hexagons, in order to have a black outline grouping the more-than-one hexagon that you represent on the map. Which is quite logical IMO...

SHH has missed this thread so far? I would have preferred if he'd noticed by himself that St. John's has two hexagons and Sherbrooke has three, without me needing to rub his nose in it

Energy prices are volatile, not sure what point you're trying to prove, not a big gotcha.

According to the Statscan Population Clock Quebec is just 2842 away from 9M and Ontario is only 85,659 away from 16M.

Since hitting 40 million people in mid June, the population has increased by 800,000 in seven months. Ontario's share of the population is roughly 40%. By July 1, there should be nearly 600,000 more people in Canada, or 240,000 new people for Ontario.

Extremely unsustainable. I once loved watching the clock. Now, it is too much of a good thing. Careful what you wish for I guess
