      Among the most popular events in 2024 was the solar eclipse of April 8, a rare phenomenon which crossed the east of the country.

    • Among the most asked questions

      • What is a solar eclipse?
      • Can it be dangerous?
      • How to watch the eclipse?
      • How to make an eclipse box?
      • How do I know if my glasses are made for watching the eclipse?
    • Canada loves soccer

      The national sport may be hockey, but it is soccer that steals the show in Google searches for current events. At the top of the rankings, we find Euro 2024, closely followed by the Copa América, where the Canadian team reached the quarter-finals for the first time in its history.

    • 7/10

      This is the number of American politicians who appear in the most popular Google searches for people, a sign that the American elections have kept Canadians in suspense. They include Donald Trump, Kamala Harris, Jill Stein, Joe Biden, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tim Walz and JD Vance.

    • Rappers Kendrick Lamar and Drake, in 2017 and 2019 respectively.

      In Canada, American rapper Kendrick Lamar seems to emerge victorious from the conflict between him and Canadian rapper Drake while the two insulted each other with songs (diss tracks) in spring. The titles Meet the Grahams, Not Like Us et Euphoria by the American are among the most searched for in 2024, but no song by the Canadian appears there.

    • Strikes in trends

      The Canadian Google news search rankings have three entries related to a strike. That of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) comes in 7th, while that of Air Canada is 8th. In 10th place, we find the Canada Post strike.
