Estimate: adults aged 20+ in Manitoba (Census 2021) × the share of online Canadian adults who use each platform (TMU Social Media Lab, The State of Social Media in Canada 2025 (summary)).

Meta’s own audience size for your exact targeting will differ.

  • A younger population (median age 38.4 vs 41.6 for Canada). Instagram and TikTok are worth more budget here.
