Administrative divisions

Description

The layers of administrative divisions offered at the scales of 1/20,000 and 1/100,000 allow the location of boundaries for the following components:

  • Boroughs and agglomerations;

  • Municipalities, unorganized territories and indigenous territories;

  • Administrative regions, metropolitan communities, and MRCs;

  • The international border, the interprovincial borders as well as the Québec—Newfoundland and Labrador border.

For the 1/100,000 scale version, the cut-off data originally compiled at the scale of 1/20,000 is adjusted to the corresponding planimetric components at the scale of 1/100,000.

A file on municipal referrals is also available in the data section below. It makes it possible to track changes made to the names of municipalities.This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).
