I do believe that number is total Military.

Looking around it's hard to pin down but this quote comes up in a few places - even Wiki - "...As of 2020, the Canadian Army has 23,000 regular soldiers, 19,000 reserve soldiers (including 5,300 members of the Canadian Rangers), for a total of 42,000 soldiers. The Army is also supported by 3,000 civilian employees from the civil service...."

Around 11,900 in the Navy - Air Force around 14,500 & 2,600 reserves.
