The current generation USS Nimitz supercarriers (the largest ever built) require a crew of about 3200 sailors, and an aircrew of about 2500.
The next-generation Ford-class supercarriers reduce this number through automation by almost 20%, to roughly 4700 crew total.
For comparison, the prototypical WW2 aircraft carrier, the USS Essex class, had a total crew of 2600.

There is no air craft carrier in Canada.
It wasn't an aircraft carrier, but a battleship. The battleship used was the USS Missouri.
Brazil currently operates 1 ex-French aircraft carrier. This 32,000 ton carrier , the Minas Gerais, was designed and built in the 1960's and operates with versions of the A4 Skyhawk and various helicopters.
