| <2> | Unless noted otherwise, the population counts we use should be considered estimates. Our population values for New Westminister were taken from various sources and although they can be traced back to StatCan, they should not be considered official. - Return to Citation |
| <3> | The area value has been supplied by StatCan and it can be different than the geographic boundaries of New Westminister.
