I just wanted to see the total number of people who died last year compared to this year. I can see a live update for current year's total death number with this link: https://www.worldometers.info/ but I can't find anything on previous year's total number.
Why is finding such a simple number so impossible? What are they hiding? If COVID actually killed a lot of people I should be able to see a massive spike in total number of deaths compared to previous years. So where are the numbers?
These numbers usually run a couple years behind. You can find the 2018 numbers. Averaged out roughly 775 people a day in Canada died from all causes in 2018. In 2020 with pop growth we are probably up to 800+ a day from all causes meaning covid deaths are a statistical nothing burger.
