I know the headline figure looks bad here, but I wouldn't stress too much about it. Digging deeper, the non-permanent resident population is shrinking back to a healthier level than during the previous surge. If you take that into account, the 'permanent' population appears to still be rising.
Non-permanent residents
NL - 17,200 (-1,344)
NS - 53,144 (-2,939)
NB - 35,739 (-1,917)
PEI - 10,368 (-676)
