The Atlas of Canada Small-scale Reference Maps are a collection of digital and print-ready 8.5” x 11” sized maps of Canada’s provinces and territories. It also includes a collection of maps of the continents and the World. Each map is available in three formats – colour, black and white, and black and white without names. The maps are suited for the general public and for educators to use in their classrooms wherever geography or environmental sciences are taught. This collection of maps compliment the Atlas of Canada Reference Map (wall map) Series. Further information on all these maps can be found on the Atlas of Canada web site at www.atlas.gc.ca.

Small area data on field crops show seeded and harvested area, yield and production figures for most principal field crops and some special crops in Canada, at the census agricultural region level (except for Quebec, where small areas are defined by provincial administrative boundaries). The provinces covered are British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec. The data are available in metric and imperial units of measure, for periods ranging from 1976 to 2023. The data are derived from the results of the November Farm Survey of the preceding year, of which the production estimates were only expressed at the provincial level in early December.

Between 2001 and 2006, Canada’s population grew by 5.4%. Only two provinces, Alberta and Ontario and three territories registered growth rates above the national average. The three Maritime provinces (Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick) had the smallest population growth, while Newfoundland and Labrador and Saskatchewan experienced population declines. In 2006, about 21.5 million people, almost two-thirds of Canada’s population lived in 33 census metropolitan areas (CMAs). Between 2001 and 2006, the population of these CMAs climbed 6.9%, faster that the national average. Barrie registered the fastest population growth of any CMA (19.2%), followed by Calgary (13.4%), Oshawa (11.6%) and Edmonton (10.4%).

Small Area and Administrative Data are derived from the annual tax file provided by Canada Revenue Agency. From the income tax forms submitted each year by Canadians, a wealth of economic and demographic information is available. Files include data on Families, Labour Income, Economic Dependency, Seniors, RRSP Contributions and Neighbourhood Income and Demographics. Geographic coverage is by Nation, Province/Territory, Postal Area and by Census Metropolitan Area (CMA).

A population ecumene is the area of inhabited lands or settled areas generally delimited by a minimum population density. This ecumene shows the areas of the densest and most extended population within census subdivisions. A census subdivision (CSD) is the general term for municipalities (as determined by provincial or territorial legislation) or areas treated as municipal equivalents for statistical purposes (e.g., Indigenous Peoples reserves and communities and unorganized territories). Municipal status is defined by laws in effect in each province and territory in Canada. For further information, consult the Statistics Canada’s 2016 Illustrated Glossary (see below under Data Resources). The assemblage of dissemination block population density data from the 2016 Census of Population are used to form the ecumene areas within census subdivisions. Areas included in the ecumene are dissemination blocks where the population density is greater than or equal to 0.4 persons per square kilometre or about one person per square mile. In some areas to capture more population within the ecumene the criteria was extended to 0.2 persons per square kilometre. The ecumene areas were generalized in certain areas to remove small uninhabited areas within the ecumene areas in census subdivisions. This map can be used as an “ecumene” overlay to differentiate the sparsely populated areas from the ecumene in conjunction with census subdivision data or other large-scale maps. This ecumene shows a more meaningful distribution of the population for Canada.

In 1996, there were 1.5 million widowed persons in Canada, accounting for 6.4% of the Canadian population 15 years of age and older. The province of Saskatchewan is an exception, with the highest proportion of widowed persons in Canada (7.6%). The widowed population are spread over much of this region, particularly in the small towns. This is primarily due to the fairly high rates of migration of working-age adults to the other provinces. In Alberta, the situation is completely different. Alberta has the smallest proportion of widowed persons of all the provinces (5.2%). This is due to Alberta’s having one of the highest fertility rates, as well as to the economic prosperity of the 1970s, which attracted young adults from other provinces. In the Northwest Territories, the proportion of widowed persons was much smaller than in all the other provinces (3.1%).

The map shows the location of 565 lakes and reservoirs with a total lake area larger than 100 square kilometres or 38.6 square miles. A table shows the fifteen largest lakes ranked by their area with their maximum depth. An examination of inland hydrologic subsystems must stress the roles of lakes and lake systems. This is particularly true in Canada, where fresh water covers about 8 per cent of the surface area, an area greater than the province of Alberta, which comprises about 5 per cent of the Canadian landmass. The rate at which water is evaporated from large lake surfaces depends on the surface temperature of lakes. Although the hydraulic flow-through forces are the most significant in influencing the rate at which lakes lose water downstream on the surface, lake currents may also be established because of horizontal differences in lake water density. Wind-induced seiches have often caused substantial rapid fluctuations in lake levels, resulting in flooding and other water management problems in large lake systems. Prolonged wind "set-up" can increase lake water levels at one end of a lake causing similar problems. In the Great Lakes, for example Lake Erie, intense storms have produced changes as great as 2 metres in water levels along the shoreline. Lake scientists (limnologists) have attempted to classify lake types by using many different criteria. Some small northern lakes occupy basins made within ice sheets, but these are small and rather unstable lake types. Examples of lake formation by other than glacial action can be found in Canada, including the interesting meteorite crater containing Ungava Lake in Quebec. Relatively large lakes have been "created" through the damming of major river systems and the establishment of large reservoirs. Well-known examples are Lake Diefenbaker in Saskatchewan and Manicouagan in Quebec. Before conducting such projects, it is essential that all aspects of the environmental system be examined in order to anticipate properly the consequences of drastic alterations in a natural hydrologic system. An important factor is the impact of sedimentation. While Lake Diefenbaker has a projected life of 1000 years, smaller reservoirs can silt up almost completely well within the project design period, for example, Bassano Dam (in Alberta) on the Bow River.

The Province of British Columbia requested a subsection 56(1) exemption under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA). After a thorough assessment, this exemption was granted by the federal Minister of Mental Health and Addictions and Associate Minister of Health to support the province in implementing its comprehensive public health response to the overdose crisis.

This table shows the percentage of Canadian households in large, medium, and small population centres, as well as in rural areas, that can access 25 Mbps broadband services in each province and territory. Small population centres are considered to have populations of between 1,000 and 29, 000. Medium population centres are considered to have populations of between 30,000 and 99,999. Large population centres are considered to have populations greater than 100,000. Rural areas have populations of less than 1,000 or fewer than 400 people per square kilometre. Broadband availability includes services delivered through fixed wireless technology. Actual availability may be restricted by capacity limitations in the network, topography and interference from structures and vegetation. As such, the figures should be considered a best possible availability estimate. Satellite services are excluded since they have a national footprint.
