Calgary population surges by staggering 6%

Edmonton, meanwhile, added more than 63,000 people, marking a 4.2 per cent increase.

Calgary's metro-area population grew by nearly 96,000 people last year — a staggering six per cent increase in the span of just 12 months — according to new estimates released Wednesday by Statistics Canada.

Both cities have seen rapid population gains in the past but nothing like this in recent memory.

Calgary's growth rate of six per cent far exceeds its previous high of 3.5 per cent in 2006.
Why are people moving to Moncton?

Are they being drawn there by Magnetic Hill?

It looks like a Tidal Bore of migration.
