The subject digest along with the Legacy News makes it sound like a complete Canada wide census. According to what I read on the LAC site they state "The 1916 census for Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta is available only on microfilm. List of microfilm reel numbers for the 1916 census <http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/genealogy/022-911.008-e.html> ". The following URL lists what census are available. http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/genealogy/022-911.001-e.html , under the heading - What Census Are Available The following list identifies the main series of our census holdings and some of the scattered earlier returns It is an excellent reference to anyone who wants to borrow the microfilm reels.
