Finding Statistics through Google

Statistics Canada is a website and government agency legislated to provide statistics for Canada and each of its provinces.

►Statistics Canada Census Program

►Statistics Canada Data Tables

Find more statistics by Googling the topic you want to know more about and adding the words "Canadian statistics". 

Example:

As with all research online, be sure to consider its relevance to your topic/assignment by assessing it, including its:

• Currency (how old are these statistics?) 
• Authority (who published these statistics?)
