    • Demography
    • Human Geography
    • Sociology

    Background:

    • Understanding population redistribution is crucial for regional planning.
    • Canada's demographic landscape is shaped by rural-urban migration.
    • Analyzing urban hierarchy exchange provides insights into settlement patterns.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To create a comprehensive inventory of Canada's population transfer between rural and urban sectors.
