Statistics Canada released the first round of the 2021 Census Data last week.
According to Stats Canada, the population of the Town of Olds only increased by 25 people from 2016 to 2021.
Olds Mayor Judy Dahl reacted to the census data.
Mayor Dahl doesn’t agree with the national census data showing a minimal 0.3 percent growth rate over that 5 year period and says council will examine the possibility of having the Town conduct its own municipal census.
The 2021 census data listed the total population of the Town of Olds as 9,209. The previous population for Olds was 9,184.
