Purpose:
This shapefile was created by the Canadian Century Research Infrastructure (CCRI) project, and consists of boundary polygons that reconstruct the census compilation and dissemination geography of the 1931 Canadian Census at the census division (CD) and census subdivision (CSD) level of geography. It can be used on its own with the attribute data fields included in the file, or it can be joined to other tabular data based on a linking field and a unique identifier (CCRIUID).
