- I agree it needs an update as it doesn't match India's wiki page of 1,428 billion and China at number 2 with it's 1,409 billion. CHCBOY (talk) 19:36, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- See List of countries by population (United Nations), which is a list based purely on estimates from the United Nations.-- Maxeto0910 (talk) 17:53, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Canada population
editFor Canada's population, I'd encourage you to use the quarterly population estimates published by Statistics Canada (https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=1710000901). It's the most accurate and up-to-date estimate of Canada's population. It's also the source used on the wikipedia page dedicated to Canada. As of 2024 Q1, Canada's population is 40,769,890. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZeusMinerva25 (talk • contribs) 08:23, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
