FYI:
Here's a few useful links for Canadian digital data:
======================================
http://www.cits.rncan.gc.ca/siteCITS/servlet/CITS/site_id=01&sessionid=&page
_id=1-004.html
Check out the links here from acquisition and products for information
pertaining to the 1:50,000 and 1:250,000 National Topographic Data Base
(NTDB).
The National Topographic Data Base (NTDB)comprises digital vector data sets
that cover the entire Canadian landmass. This product includes thirteen
themes such as hydrography, hypsography, road network (see also the Updated
Road Network product (URN)), etc. The NTDB is a complete and uniform product
that can be highly useful in a broad range of activities. For example, it
can be used for preparing thematic maps and it can suit for geographic
information system (GIS) applications, because NTDB and its attributes allow
us to execute thorough spatial analysis
