The head of the Century Initiative, an influential non-profit think tank that wants to see Canada’s population grow to 100 million by 2100, is softening emphasis of its controversial headline goal, saying it is not a target it is aiming to reach and was created to be “provocative” and bold.
The 100 million population figure was meant to galvanize public debate about the best way to foster growth in Canada, chief executive Lisa Lalande said in an interview.
Bullshit.
