Population Surge: Canada Hits 42.5M

⚠ This is a flightplan, not a commitment. Flightplans are hypothetical policy proposals modelled in the Ducklings causal simulation. They become projects only when voted into adoption through Consensus. Metrics shown reflect simulation model outputs, not real-world outcomes.

Overview

Immigration, temporary residents, and natural growth push Canada past 42.5 million. Higher population increases per-capita strain on healthcare (CHT), housing demand, and social transfers. A demographic tailwind for GDP but headwind for services.

Ducklings Simulation

This proposal is active in the Ducklings causal simulation (Epoch 11). The simulation models downstream effects using a BFS cascade engine with strength-weighted, time-delayed edges capped at 3-hop depth and ±25% per-hop limits. Cascade outputs are bounded by variable saturation thresholds.
