The 1901 Canadian census was a detailed enumeration of the Canadian population. The census was started on June 1, 1901. All reports had been received by February 26, 1902. The total population count of Canada was 5,371,315.[1] This was an increase of 11% over the 1891 census of 4,833,239.
The previous census was the 1891 census and the following census was the Northwest Provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba 1906 census. This census was the first census in which all then-admitted provinces recorded a population of at least 100,000, which would not be replicated until 1961.
