List of number-one country singles of 2006 (Canada)

Last updated

Canada Country is a chart published weekly by Billboard magazine. [1] The chart was published from July 22, 2006, onwards. This 50-position chart lists the most popular country music songs, calculated weekly by airplay on 31 country music stations across the country as monitored by Nielsen BDS. [2] Songs are ranked by total plays. As with most other Billboard charts, the Canada Country chart features a rule for when a song enters recurrent rotation. A song is declared recurrent if it has been on the chart longer than 30 weeks and is lower than number 20 in rank. [3]

Prior to the current chart published by Billboard, an airplay chart following a similar methodology was published by Radio & Records . The R&R Canada Country Top 30 chart listed the most popular songs on country radio based on airplay from 21 Mediabase stations. [4] The list was expanded to 40 positions effective as of the May 19, 2006 issue. [5] The Radio & Records chart featured a rule whereby any song below rank 15 that has been on the chart 20 or more weeks will be moved to recurrent rotation. [5]

These are the Canadian number-one country singles of 2006, per the BDS Canada Country Airplay chart and R&R Canada Country Top 30 chart.

Note that Billboard publishes charts with an issue date approximately 7–10 days in advance.
