The map has different layers of information. You can turn on and off the layers by clicking on the check box. You can use the check boxes to select multiple items. For example, if you would like to look at the municipalities that have inventory of ash trees, you would turn on "Ash Tree Inventory" only. Learn more about how to use the maps below.


How can I find a municipality on maps?

Click the arrows in the top right corner of the map to open the dropdown tools menu, and select the magnifying glass to open the search bar. Type the name or partial name that you want to search.


Maps contain the open data layers - Census Subdivision (CSD) and Population Centre (POPCTR) available from Statistics Canada for the Census year 2016. The Census Subdivision Boundary File, 2016 contains the boundaries of all census subdivisions (municipalities) which combined cover all of Canada. The Population Centre Boundary File, 2016 contains the population centre boundaries for which census data are disseminated. The population data used in this project are from the 2016 Census of Population.
