Go to https://www.ancestry.ca/cs/canadaday . If you access the site from
outside Canada you will be directed with a question if you wish to connect

Ancestry.com. Instead click on where it says to continue to Ancestry.ca to
the Canadian site or you will not be able to access the free census records
collection. . Please access, register and do the search through this page.

If you go through the regular site you may be directed to a subscription
page. Once you get your results for Canadian Census only-any other record
will require a paid subscription-click on the results image. You have the
opportunity to save the image to your computer by clicking on the green save

side you have the opportunity to print or download the image.

If you try to access any other of the collections during or after the free
