The article discusses Quebec's declining representation in Canadian federal politics as its population is projected to fall below 20% by 2050, while Alberta's population is rapidly growing.
In the article, André Pratte reflects on the changing dynamics of Canadian federal politics, particularly the declining influence of Quebec. Statistics Canada predicts that by 2050, Quebec will represent less than 20% of Canada’s total population, with projections estimating its percentage to be between 18.1% and 19.1%. This demographic shift highlights a significant change, as Alberta's population is expected to grow substantially, potentially accounting for up to 16.1% of the national population by the same year.
