Within the context of the Canadian Census, defining Indigenous peoples has been an evolving process. This guide was created in an attempt to navigate this definition. The terms “Indian,” “Indian territory,” “Native” etc. were utilized to discover how the Department of Agriculture defined Indigenous peoples and land. All of the censuses have been linked to the original document, though the digital copy located on archive.org.

This spreadsheet contains a checklist of Census publications from 1956 to 1981 (from the 1956 Census to the 1976 Census inclusive) and provides links to electronic copies found in the Internet Archive when available. The list of reports is taken from the Historical Catalogue of Statistics Canada Publications, 1918-1980 (11-512). It is a continuation of the "Census of Canada Report Locator: 1851-1951" (http://hdl.handle.net/10864/10936).

This data collection is comprised of a one-in-one-hundred sample of persons who completed the long-form census questionnaire (the one-third sample) for the 1976 Census of Canada. To preserve confidentiality, records for this study were selected from geographic areas with populations of 250,000 or more, including Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, the Montreal census enumeration area, Quebec, the Toronto census enumeration area, Ontario (excluding Toronto), Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, the Vancouver census enumeration area, and British Columbia (excluding Vancouver). The data have been organized into three separate files by record type: Household, Family, and Individual. Part 1, Household File, contains information on the age, marital status, number, and primary language of household occupants. Part 2, Family File, contains information on age, educational level, languages spoken, children, and population size of place of residence of the husband and wife (or lone parent). Part 3, Individual File, contains detailed information about individual household residents including educational attainment, marital status, employment status, household relationship, language, and sex.

This table presents the population and private occupied dwelling counts and intercensal growth for Canada, the provinces and the territories, 1851 to 2021 censuses.

These data support the forthcoming publication "Woods, Water, and Meadows: The Formation of Ukrainian-Canadian Identity Through Land and Settlement". This collection consists of tables and maps that use data from the Canadian Census of Population between the years 1991 - 2021 (inclusive). The paper explores the development and persistence of Ukrainian-Canadian communities in the prairies using a combination of archival documents, township maps, homestead records, and contemporary census data. It addresses the limitations of historical census data in capturing the ethnic origins of early Ukrainian settlers and highlights the importance of archival research in filling these gaps.

The database presented here brings together an assortment of early census, property assessment, and poll tax records, providing a total of 69,807 personal names. None of the census, assessment or poll tax records presented here is complete for the province - even if they claimed to be so at the time. None of the individual returns is complete internally either; people and households were overlooked, and sections of communities were undoubtedly missed.

The Postal Code Conversion File (PCCF) is a digital file which provides a correspondence between the Canada Post Corporation (CPC) six-character postal code and Statistics Canada's standard geographic areas for which census data and other statistics are produced. Through the link between postal codes and standard geographic areas, the PCCF permits the integration of data from various sources. The Single Link Indicator provides one best link for every postal code, as there are multiple records for many postal codes. The geographic coordinates attached to each postal code on the PCCF are commonly used to map the distribution of data for spatial analysis (e.g., clients, activities). The location information is a powerful tool for planning, or research purposes. In April 1983, the Geography Division released the first version of the Postal Code Conversion File, which linked postal codes to census geographic areas and included geographic coordinates. Since then, the file has been updated on a regular basis to reflect postal code changes provided by Canada Post Corporation. Every five years, the postal code linkages on the Postal Code Conversion File are “converted” to the latest census geographic areas. The original Postal Code Conversion File was linked to the 1981 Census geographic areas. Since then, the Postal Code Conversion File has undergone four “conversions”, following the 1986, 1991 and 1996 censuses. An automated system was used for the 1991-1996 conversion. Also, for the first time, the 1996 Census reported postal codes were used to validate the PCCF links. To obtain the postal code conversion file or for questions, consult the DLI contact at your educational institution.
