Table 2 Changes to census subdivision codes, names, and types in numerical order, by province and territory
Table 2 is a bilingual table. This table presents only changes that impact on the Standard Geographical Classification (SGC)1 and therefore excludes annexations and boundary revisions. The changes are listed in SGC code order and the data are available for download for all of Canada as well as by province/territory.

Statistics Canada has provided the data in three file formats:
- CSV (Comma Separated Values) which allows you to access each table in any spreadsheet application.

Note
- The Standard Geographical Classification (SGC) is Statistics Canada's official classification of geographic areas in Canada. The SGC provides unique numeric identification for three types of geographic areas: provinces/territories, census divisions and census subdivisions. The three geographic areas are hierarchically related. This relationship is reflected in the seven-digit code.
