Why an interactive atlas?

Canada is enormous, and many of the country’s economic and historical stories make more sense when you can see them geographically. These maps are designed as educational and research tools: zoom in, switch layers on and off, search for locations and follow primary-source links when you want to dig deeper.

Canadian Country Life will continue adding maps as useful datasets become available. The goal is not to replace official government mapping tools, but to make important Canadian information easier to explore and understand.
