Data collected by Shawn Graham from the Canadian Register of Historic Places, which is going offline in the Spring of 2026.
This site visualizes the metadata from the Register, and provides links to existing entries in the Register (for now).
I am in the process of collecting more data; there are approximately 13,500 sites in the Register.
