Administrative divisions

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).**
