How many speakers do the Wakashan languages total today?

Open Question

The surveyed Wikipedia treatment of the family gives only a 1909 ethnic-population count (2,070 Kwakiutl and 2,494 Nootka) rather than a current count of actual Wakashan speakers, and states no modern aggregate.

What would resolve this A published modern census or sociolinguistic survey reporting a current aggregate count of Wakashan-language speakers across all seven member languages.
