2062.
(If you click through on the link and get a different figure, it's probably because the Canada Public Service Agency has updated its website; they update the numbers once a month.)

Interesting:
"Nearly 35,000 employees are listed under a category called the Consolidated Cryptologic Program, which includes the NSA as well as the surveillance and code-breaking components of the Air Force, Army, Navy and Marines."

The number for the Canadian Cryptologic Program (CSE + CFIOG) would be approximately 3000, or roughly 9% of the U.S. effort. By comparison, the number of full-time Canadian military personnel is less than 5% of the U.S. total.
