Census Tract Maps with Information on Neighbourhoods

Question

I am trying to locate a map of Saskatoon at the census tract level that includes information on neighbourhoods for Census 2006. See attached file for an example from Census 1996. I have been unable to locate one. The reference map at the census tract level available at http://geodepot.statcan.gc.ca/2006/13011619/03130120_05-eng.jsp has census tract codes but does not have matching information on neighbourhoods.

Answer

Our geography contacts have confirmed that similar CT level maps weren't produced for 2006. It may be possible to produce similar maps for 2006 as a custom products on request but there would be a cost to produce them.

Our contacts directed us to the following neighbourhood maps in Saskatoon(available free) and indicated that they may help your users determine on their own which Census Tracts are within each neighbourhood:

I hope that this is helpful.
