Over the last five years as the data shows above both countries population has gone up. Brazil's population (using the first data set) over the last five years has gone up 8,542. While in Canada the population increased 1,131. The trend shows that in both countries the population has gone up, yet in Brazil the population had gone up almost eight times as much. This could be due to many things. It could be that in Canada more people are moving out and in Brazil more people are moving in. It could also be do to an illness in Canada. Either way the populations in both countries have increased.
