Comparability — General

The Census of 1852 only includes Quebec and Ontario provinces. Data covering approximately one-third of the estimated total population and representing many urban centers, including Montreal and Toronto, are missing due to the loss of original manuscripts. Data from the city of Quebec, however, are included in the sample. Users should be cautious about the underrepresentation of urban areas in the 1852 sample.
