I've always wanted to know Canada's COP. I've guessed it's probably somewhere north of Toronto.

In 1993, it was Kawartha Lakes, Ontario.

Washington's is in Enumclaw right? It's interesting how some of the centers of population are in the middle of nowhere like Nevada's. Hawaii is funny being in the water. I've actually wondered about Canada. It would amazing to know the center of pop. for the country and the provinces.

Ours is just south of North Bend, now.  It was Enumclaw on another one I saw.  I'm a little surprised it's moved north for us...since all of our fastest-growing counties are in the south.

According to whom?

Kawartha Lakes didnt even exist in 1993, its an amalgamated municipality that amalgamated in like 2001. Plus, 1993 wasnt even a census year. However, it makes sense. I'd reckon it's moved further west towards Barrie by now.

It's in what is now Kawartha Lakes, then Laxton.

Correction: the Township of Laxton, Digby and Longford

Yeah, that's a good name for a township.  Whatever you say, Canada Smiley
