Provinces in 1871

The 1871 Census of Canada covered the four established provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario and Quebec, which had been united as the Dominion of Canada in 1867. Manitoba and Rupert’s Land (later the North West Territories), added to Canada in 1870, had been enumerated in a very basic census in that year. British Columbia and Prince Edward Island held their own independent censuses in 1871. British Columbia joined Canada towards the end of 1871, and Prince Edward Island entered in 1873.

 A Major Canadian Resource

• Digitized from the manuscript schedules of the 1871 Census of Canada, the only detailed industrial census returns to survive so completely from the past
• With more than 45,000 industrial establishments, each with up to 100 variables, including many that never appeared in the published census reports
• Provides uniquely valuable snapshots of industrial activity just after Confederation, at a time of transition in technology, business organization and work discipline
