Canada Year Book Historical Collection - GovInfo

Canada Year Book Historical Collection was launched today by Statistics Canada. This digital collection, available free of charge from the Statistics Canada website, contains a wealth of historical data covering the first century of Canadian history following Confederation in 1867, through to 1967, with historical text, tables, charts and maps. It's a great site to show students and teachers, because it includes lots of learning resources, including lesson plans and worksheets, but it's also really good for historical statistics. To get an idea of the coverage, look at it under the heading “Browse by Topic” and follow the links , e.g. Photos and Lesson Plans. Topics there include The Great Depression, Canada at War, Ethnocultural Diversity and lots more.
