The last time I looked it up was about 10-15 years ago when Canada and New York State were about 22 million respectively. Admittedly, even at that time, the figures might have been outdated.
...or maybe I'm just confused and should have said California instead of New York...
Regardless, I think the underlying point is still valid.
Edit: Yeah, just did some quick research and it appears that I was on a steady diet of acid and crack in the 90s, since NY State's population was never anywhere near Canada's. It must have been California, and I just got it mixed up.
