Synopsis

Gain insight into early 20th-century Canadian work life with this detailed census volume. This volume presents the Fifth Census of Canada from 1911, focusing on occupations across the nine provinces. It covers how workers were classified, who was counted, and how the data was gathered, summarized, and tabulated for analysis.

The book explains the scope and methodology, including who was surveyed and how chief occupations were determined. It also highlights the shift to mechanical tabulation and the kind of cross-tabulated data the census produced. You’ll find extensive tables that break down gainful occupations by nativity, age periods, provinces, and cities with 15,000+ residents, offering a rich view of Canada’s labor landscape at the time.

- Clear explanations of the census scope, definitions, and enumeration rules
- Detailed tables showing workers by aggregate, nativity, age, and location
- City-level data for major urban areas, plus national trends across provinces
- Background on the new mechanical tabulation methods used to compile the data

Ideal for readers of history and statistics who want a grounded view of Canada’s labor structure in 1911, this edition provides a primary source glimpse into how work was organized and recorded over a century ago.
