Looks like they expect 821,000 people to live in the region by then. Interesting note is that they expect wellington to reach 324,500 people. Presumably most of these numbers are concentrated in the urban areas of Waterloo, Kitchener, Cambridge and Guelph. So one could assume the the the Combined population of the 4 urban centres would be over 1 million people by 2041! Also Waterloo has already surpassed Hamilton in terms of population and the gap will continue to grow.

The City of Toronto is projected to grow by 1.3M people, to about 4.2M total. Given that there is practically no available empty land, housing for those 1.3M people will need to come from intensification and redevelopment of industrial land.
Where the heck are they going to put everyone? That's crazy.
