Agent-curated quarterly intelligence from Statistics Canada's keyless Web Data Service: immigrants / emigrants / returning emigrants / net emigration / net non-permanent residents per province and territory (table 17100040, 1946-Q1 -> present) joined with quarter-start population estimates (table 17100009) for per-1,000-resident rates. Fail-loud component identity gate; derived net international flow; trailing-4-quarter annualized component flows with year-over-year momentum; a documented dominant-driver categorical; a documented 0-100 inflow-pressure score ranked as inflow_pressure_rank; flow-reversal and record-high/low flags. Trailing 40 quarters published. Primary key: province_code + quarter. Cadence: quarterly.

| Column | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| quarter | string | Quarter start (ISO date); the quarter's migration window. (unit: date) |
| country_code | string | Constant CAN. |
| province | string | Canonical province/territory name (StatCan verbatim). |
| province_code | string | Short code (NL/PE/NS/NB/QC/ON/MB/SK/AB/BC/YT/NT/NU; CA = national; NTNU = historical NWT including Nunavut, terminated 1991). |
| is_national | integer | 1 for the Canada national row (estimated independently upstream; not the provincial sum). (unit: 0/1) |
| immigrants | integer | Immigrants settling in the province in the quarter. (unit: persons) |
| emigrants | integer | Emigrants leaving the province in the quarter. (unit: persons) |
| returning_emigrants | integer | Emigrants returning to the province in the quarter. (unit: persons) |
| net_emigration | integer | Published net emigration (emigrants - returning_emigrants + net temporary emigration; the lagged component is pending for recent quarters and treated as 0, matching StatCan's own publication). (unit: persons) |
| net_npr | integer | Net non-permanent residents (inflows - outflows) in the quarter. (unit: persons) |
| net_international | integer | Derived net international flow: immigrants - net_emigration + net_npr. (unit: persons) |
| population | integer | Quarter-start population estimate (table 17100009). (unit: persons) |
| immigration_rate_per_1000 | float | 1000 * immigrants / population. (unit: per 1,000) |
| emigration_rate_per_1000 | float | 1000 * net_emigration / population. (unit: per 1,000) |
| npr_rate_per_1000 | float | 1000 * net_npr / population. (unit: per 1,000) |
| net_rate_per_1000 | float | 1000 * net_international / population. (unit: per 1,000) |
| immigr_4q | integer | Trailing-4-quarter immigrants (annualized inflow). (unit: persons) |
| emig_4q | integer | Trailing-4-quarter net emigration (annualized drag). (unit: persons) |
| npr_4q | integer | Trailing-4-quarter net non-permanent residents. (unit: persons) |
| net_4q | integer | Trailing-4-quarter net international flow (annualized). (unit: persons) |
| net_4q_rate_per_1000 | float | 1000 * net_4q / population. (unit: per 1,000) |
| momentum_4q | integer | net_4q minus net_4q four quarters earlier (YoY change in annualized net flow). (unit: persons) |
| momentum_rate_per_1000 | float | 1000 * momentum_4q / population. (unit: per 1,000) |
| dominant_driver | string | Largest-absolute 4Q component (immigration / emigration / npr), unless the top is less than 1.25x the runner-up, in which case 'balanced'. |
| inflow_pressure_score | float | 0-100 per-quarter score: winsorized (+/-30) min-max of net_4q_rate_per_1000 across provinces; null for the Canada national row. (unit: 0-100) |
| inflow_pressure_rank | float | Deterministic per-quarter rank: inflow_pressure_score desc, net_4q desc, province_code asc; null for the Canada national row. (unit: rank) |
| flow_reversal | integer | 1 when annualized net flow flips sign vs a year earlier. (unit: 0/1) |
| record_high | integer | 1 when net_4q is the province's max over the published 10-year panel. (unit: 0/1) |
| record_low | integer | 1 when net_4q is the province's min over the published 10-year panel. (unit: 0/1) |
| asof_quarter | string | Latest complete quarter in the panel. (unit: date) |
| source_table | string | StatCan table PIDs behind the row. |
| row_hash | string | Deterministic 16-hex row hash. |
