The thematic map collection contains colourful maps of several of the larger cities on such themes as populatyion change, household income and nighttime population. These maps are also available in pdf format.

Some Statistics Canada boundary files are available for download from Geogratis.

Also available on the site is an interactive map tool that allows users to query by city, town or street.
