List of Census Tract Codes for the 2016 Census

Question:
I am looking for a list of all the Census Tract codes used in the 2016 Census. I would like the codes and the geographical location information for the code (i.e., where the is located in Canada).

Answer:
In this case it would be easier to use the CT boundary file.  If you download it from the appropriate Geography page and unzip it, you'll see that there is a dbf as part of the shapefile, and this will include the associated PR and CMA/CA.
