The Area Profile Series gives a statistical overview, or profile, of geographic areas. A wide range of census variables are covered in limited detail. The Profile Series consists of data based on a 20% sample except for age, sex and marital status which are obtained on a 100% basis. New in 1996 Area Profiles can be accessed much earlier than in 1991. Components of the profile are available as each variable is released. From October 1997 to July 1998, data at the CD CSD level will be available on the day of release of a variable with all other geographic levels for this variable available one month later. The CDROM containing all area profiles will be available in 3rd Quarter of 1998 and the publications for CD/CSD and CT levels will be available in the first Quarter of 1999.
Canada’s Constitution Act (1982) recognises three Indigenous groups: Indians (now referred to as First Nations), Inuit, and Métis. Indigenous peoples make a vital contribution to the culture, heritage and economic development of Canada. Despite improvements in Indigenous well-being in recent decades, significant gaps remain with the non-Indigenous population. This study focuses on four priority issues to maximise the potential of Indigenous economies in Canada.
Based upon a variety of research approaches and focusing on nineteen case studies covering bands and tribal councils in Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta, and British Columbia, this book is an examination of Indian government and its meaning in practice. Four specific elements of governance are examined: citizenship, policy-making, service production and delivery, and finance.

One hundred years ago, the City of Brantford advertised itself as the most important manufacturing centre in Canada. During the century that followed, its industrial economy boomed, faltered, and finally collapsed. By the end of the twentieth century, Brantford was known for unemployment, hard luck, and the infamy of having "the worst downtown in Canada." For twenty years the downtown was in steep decline. Significant attempts at urban revival had failed until Wilfrid Laurier University decided to locate a campus in the heart of Brantford's crumbling city centre. Leo Groarke revisists the grandeur of the city's past, explores the economic downfall, and tells the story of the arrival of the university, its early struggles, its commitment to historic restoration, and its ultimate success as a catalyst for urban renewal. The compelling story he recounts will engage anyone interested in the plight of the North-American city core and the role that universities and colleges can play in re-establishing downtowns as vibrant centres of historical and contemporary importance.
