Statistics Canada has compiled a graph of the most common and least common days for births in our country. The list is based on those who were born between 1995 and 2025 and shows where each day falls in the year in terms of the number of births on that specific day.
As one would expect, the least common day for a birthday in Canada was February 29th – leap day. The second least-common day for a birth was December 25th followed by Boxing Day and Christmas Eve. According to the stats, February had the least amount of births in 2025 with just over 27,000.
The most common day for women to give birth in Canada was September 20th. In fact, the most common days throughout the year to welcome a new baby landed between September 7th and 26th. In 2025, the busiest month for births was July with nearly 34,000.
