The National Capital Region (NCR; French: Région de la capitale nationale, pronounced [ʁeʒjɔ̃ d(ə) la kapital nɑsjɔnal]), also known as Canada's Capital Region and Ottawa–Gatineau, is an official designation encompassing the federal capital of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario, the adjacent city of Gatineau, Quebec, and surrounding suburban and exurban areas.

Population centre, in Canadian census data, is a populated place, or a cluster of interrelated populated places, which meets the demographic characteristics of an urban area, having a population of at least 1,000 people and a population density of no fewer than 400 persons per square km2. The boundaries of a populated place are not necessarily contiguous with municipal boundaries; a population centre may both include areas outside the boundaries of a municipality, if their urban development is directly contiguous, and may exclude areas inside the boundaries of a municipality which are less densely populated. A municipality may also not be classified as a population centre at all, but may si…

This is a list of the largest cities in Canada by census starting with the 1871 census of Canada, the first national census. In the earlier census, only communities that were incorporated as cities at the time of each census are presented. Therefore, the list does not include any incorporated towns (T) that may have been larger than any incorporated cities at each census. As various provinces take divergent approaches toward municipal governance, population figures that confined strictly to formal municipal boundary became less meaningful data. In recognition of the close economic or geographical relationship and community of interest satellite communities in proximity to cities but may be…

Census metropolitan areas (CMAs) and census agglomerations (CAs) are geographic units defined by Statistics Canada to encompass an urban core and environs. This list is arranged by population, using data from the 2021 and 2016 Canadian censuses. A city's metropolitan area in colloquial or administrative terms may be different from its CMA as defined by Statistics Canada, resulting in differing populations. Such is the case with the Greater Toronto Area, where its metro population is notably higher than its CMA population due to its inclusion of the neighbouring Oshawa CMA to the east and the Burlington portion of the neighbouring Hamilton CMA to the west. In 2021, 27,465,137 people (71.9% o…
