Census source records

Each link states the assessment that connected the source row to this map. Name candidates remain candidates; no source statistic is silently assigned to the map.

Boundary intersections across censuses

These are computed polygon intersections in the equal-area CRS ESRI:102001. Fractions describe the area of the earlier and later polygons, respectively. They do not establish historical succession, and population has not been apportioned by area. All positive intersections are retained, including very small contributions.

People and biographical connections

These published connections come from the separate LINCS / Dictionary of Canadian Biography layer. A life event or overlapping lifespan does not establish residence at a census date. The association remains attached to this published page; it is not assigned to every revised census group.
