Birthrates have fallen to replacement or lower in almost every developed country and many developing ones, but let's be honest, current Canadian immigration levels are set for aggressive growth, not population replacement.
I would say replacement is definitely part of it. Not officialyl but if we check demographics that is what's happening.
I remember how projections would say 9M people by 2030-2035, looks like Q1 2024 will hit that. Using the table above, between Q3, 2023 until now, that's an absolute growth of 272,676.... absolutely wild.
Q4 2022 to now: 213,993 growth, MTL being 128K to 149.8K
If we do strictly Q1 2023-Q4 2023, current population growth is 177,826.
Montreal usually sees 60-70% of growth, so we can possibly have record breaking numbers for 22-23 and 23-24. The July 1st, 2022 population estimate for the Island of Montreal was 2,039,000... curious to see the net gain with the insane growth Quebec has experienced. Last year, Quebec grew by 153,000
One notable thing is that regions like 08 and 11 were declining for a while but have turned things around.
Some sub-regions are clearly doing better than others, but generally speaking almost all regions of Quebec, urban and rural, are reasonably healthy right now.

Population estimate now 8,953,048, an increase of 8,187 over three weeks (about 409 people a day) and a Q1-current population growth of 186,010 people.
Mid January is when we should see 2022-2023 growth, so I am curious about the net gain for Montreal (island + GMA) and all of Quebec. Remember, Quebec was supposed to hit 9M by 2030, looks like early next year is when that will happen.
