1916 Census transferred to Library and Archives Canada

Gordon Watts reports on his site The Global Gazette

"On 2 January 2008 Statistics Canada transferred schedules of the 1916 Census of Population for Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba to Library and Archives Canada. As the effective date for that Census was 1 June 1916 it is expected that shortly after 1 June 2008 these records should be made available for public access. What form that access will take is up in the air at the moment. "
