It's 16 Directories PLUS an Almanac - ALL-IN-ONE!
A wealth of general information, the almanac section of this comprehensive resource includes national statistics on population, employment, imports and exports, and more.
National awards and honours are presented, along with forms of address, Commonwealth information and full colour photos of Canadian symbols.
Postal information, weights, measures, distances and other useful charts are also incorporated. Complete almanac information includes perpetual calendars, five-year holiday planners and astronomical information.
Each subsequent section is a directory in itself, providing robust information on business and finance, government, associations, arts and culture (museums, zoos, libraries, etc.), health, transportation, law, education, religion, libraries and more.
Government information includes federal, provincial and territorial - and includes an easy-to-use quick index to find key information. A separate Municipal Government section includes every municipality in Canada, with full profiles of Canada's largest urban centres.
