title: Address register research for the 1991 census of Canada.
abstract: "The current Canadian census is based on the local enumerator who lists and visits each dwelling in his/her enumeration area to drop off the questionnaires just before census day.  Other approaches to compiling an address list exist, however.  This paper describes current research into the use of an address register for the next Canadian census, to take place in 1991.  Possible applications of an address register are described, earlier research is summarized and potential sources for an address register in the Canadian context are mentioned.  The paper concludes with a number of concerns which must be addressed in addition to the more technical issues."
