Income Trends in Canada

Question

Last Friday just at closing time a student called, wanting access to Income Trends in Canada for 2001.  He needed that year to extract data in 2001 dollars.  Unfortunately the online 2001 tables do not work, they all lead to a "File not found" error message.  Fortunately I still have the CD-ROM and was able to send him the tables he needed.

I tried a sample of other years and the tables were fine.  Can you have someone look into the faulty links to the 2001 edition?

Answer

This is the answer we received from the division:

The current link should be used because of the revisions and the CPI should be used to convert the dollars.
