Nope. Alberta had 4.3 million people and New Brunswick and Nova Scotia each have less than 1 million, while Alberta has 6 Senators and they both get 10.
Edit: Aw, shite. Got moved to the Poliboard.

Four regions of 6 each as set out in the Constitution Act plus 3 extra for each of the territories. Nothing to do with population at all.
Simple explanation is on the Wiki

Welllll…”simple” except that apparently Newfoundland is considered its own “region” and gets only 6 Senators itself.

Territories get 1.
Most provinces get a higher number by statute.
Quebec and Ontario get a ton based on population but the Maritimes get an outsized amount.
