How many native Americans were in Canada in 1600?

It's hard to tell. I've read estimates that the total precolumbian native population in the western hemisphere was about 20 million. Seeing as Canada represents a large section of this area, albiet much of that area is very frigid, I would guess it was around 3 million before Columbus. Add a century of plague and war to the mix and I would take a wild guess at anywhere from 100,000-1 million.
