Information from Stats Canada Web Site.

Stats Canada only reflects those residents who choose their principle residence as Collingwood (Town of The Blue Mountains, Wasaga Beach) and it is very difficult to tell our actual growth which includes part-time residents. We have many seasonal residents who have condominiums, chalets, etc., which are not counted in Stats Canada numbers.

** Amalgamation of municipalities took place therefore this data represents 100% of the population based upon 2006 geographic legal areas. Users wishing to compare 2001 Census data with those of other censuses should take into account that the boundaries of geographic areas may change from one census to another. In order to facilitate comparison, the 1996 Census population counts are adjusted, as needed, to account for boundary changes between the 1996 and 2001 Censuses.
