This means that the numbers you see are often estimates, and the order of waterfalls on a list might change depending on how they were measured. Don't worry too much about the exact ranking, just enjoy learning about these amazing natural wonders!

Waterfalls by Average Flow Rate

The "flow rate" of a waterfall tells us how much water rushes over it every second. It's like measuring how much water fills a swimming pool in a certain amount of time! Waterfalls with high flow rates are incredibly powerful and often very wide.

As of 2021, there are 25 waterfalls in Canada with an average flow rate of at least 100 cubic meters per second (about 3,531 cubic feet per second).
