Canadian settlements that have not been disambiguated with the name of the province are listed at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Canadian_Wikipedians%27_notice_board/List_of_undisambiguated_communities" title="Wikipedia:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board/List of undisambiguated communities">Wikipedia:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board/List of undisambiguated communities</a>. </p><p>Note the following considerations: </p> <ol><li>Cities can be moved if they (a) have a unique place name, or (b) are the most important use of their name. A city's relative international fame, or lack thereof, may have some bearing on criterion (b), but it is irrelevant if the city qualifies under criterion (a)—if there is no other <a href="/wiki/Flin_Flon" title="Flin Flon">Flin Flon</a> anywhere in the world, then it is not valid to cite Flin Flon's lack of international fame as a reason to keep the article at <span class="example deprecated-content example-bad" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-removed, #8B0000);">Flin Flon, Manitoba</span>.</li> <li>Towns (unless the town's population is akin to that of a city), villages, neighbourhoods and other smaller settlements must have <em>unique</em> place names to qualify for a page move. At this smaller level, importance is too subjective, too prone to circular "mine is more important than yours because mine is <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:IKNOWIT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:IKNOWIT">the one I've heard of</a>" debates, to be a viable criterion.</li> <li>Population and Google-hit comparisons between cities of the same name <em>may</em> be helpful in determining <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:PRIMARYTOPIC" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:PRIMARYTOPIC">primary usage</a>, but are not conclusive in isolation. For example, <a href="/wiki/Hamilton,_Ontario" title="Hamilton, Ontario">Hamilton</a> and <a href="/wiki/Windsor,_Ontario" title="Windsor, Ontario">Windsor</a> are larger than their namesakes in other countries, but for historical, political, or cultural reasons they are both less internationally significant than at least one of their smaller namesakes, and thus do not qualify as primary usages. Further, Google searching is geolocated, so that users in different areas will get different sets of results—a user in Canada will see results pertaining disproportionately to the Hamilton in Ontario, while a user in Scotland will see results pertaining disproportionately to the Hamilton in South Lanarkshire, and one in New Zealand will see results pertaining disproportionately to the Hamilton in Waikato—and thus "which one comes up most often when I search on Google" is not a definitive measure.</li> <li>Cities may also lose out as primary usage to non-city topics. For example, <a href="/wiki/Regina,_Saskatchewan" title="Regina, Saskatchewan">Regina</a> and <a href="/wiki/Prince_Albert,_Saskatchewan" title="Prince Albert, Saskatchewan">Prince Albert</a> are both the largest cities of those names, but cannot be considered primary topics as both are overridden by their names' royal biography referents.</li> <li>Per <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Disambiguation" title="Wikipedia:Disambiguation">Wikipedia:Disambiguation</a>, a disambiguation page is not meant to serve as a search index for all Wikipedia articles that simply have a word in their titles; they are meant only to steer people to the correct choice among articles that could potentially have <em>the same title</em>. For instance, only articles that could potentially be given the title <a href="/wiki/Toronto" title="Toronto">Toronto</a> are to be evaluated when deciding whether that title should be a disambiguation page or an article about the Canadian city. Topics such as <a href="/wiki/Toronto_Transit_Commission" title="Toronto Transit Commission">Toronto Transit Commission</a>, <a href="/wiki/University_of_Toronto" title="University of Toronto">University of Toronto</a> or <a href="/wiki/Toronto_Public_Library" title="Toronto Public Library">Toronto Public Library</a>, which merely contain the word Toronto in a longer name, are not to be considered when making such a decision, as they cannot validly be moved to the plain title "Toronto". A comprehensive article about the city would already include links to these topics anyway.</li> <li>In most cases, an article is a candidate for such a page move if "City" already exists on Wikipedia as a redirect to "City, Province". An article <em>may</em> also be a candidate for such a page move if "City" is a blank redlink. As Wikipedia is a work in progress to which new articles are always being added, the fact that another article doesn't already exist at the plain title does not inherently prove that a name is unique.</li></ol> <p>Previously, consensus required a page move discussion to take place in all cases before a page could be moved. This is no longer the consensus position, however; straightforward cases may now be moved at any time. However, a discussion should still take place if there is some potential ambiguity as to what the most appropriate name would be, or if there is a legitimate reason to believe that there may be a dispute. If you disagree with the suitability of a page move that has already taken place, however, then do not move the page back to the disambiguated title arbitrarily; rather, start a discussion on the talk page <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requested_moves" title="Wikipedia:Requested moves">requesting a move</a> back to the comma-province title. </p><p>For cities that do not qualify for undisambiguated titles, the correct title format is <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">City, ProvinceOrTerritory</span> (the "comma convention"). For the territories, please note that the correct forms are <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">City, Yukon</span> (not <span class="example deprecated-content example-bad" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-removed, #8B0000);">City, Yukon Territory</span>) and <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">City, Nunavut</span> (not <span class="example deprecated-content example-bad" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-removed, #8B0000);">City, Nunavut Territory</span>), but <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">City, Northwest Territories</span> (not <span class="example deprecated-content example-bad" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-removed, #8B0000);">City, Northwest</span>). For the easternmost province, the proper form is <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">City, Newfoundland and Labrador</span>. Localities that need further disambiguation beyond the province or territory include their county, municipality, or parish. (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Armstrong,_Thunder_Bay_District,_Ontario" title="Armstrong, Thunder Bay District, Ontario">Armstrong, Thunder Bay District, Ontario</a>, due to the need to disambiguate it from the <a href="/wiki/Armstrong,_Ontario" title="Armstrong, Ontario">Armstrong, Ontario</a> in <a href="/wiki/Timiskaming_District,_Ontario" class="mw-redirect" title="Timiskaming District, Ontario">Timiskaming District</a>; as the one in Timiskaming is an incorporated municipality, it gets title precedence.) </p><p>A Canadian city's article, however, should never be titled simply <span class="example deprecated-content example-bad" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-removed, #8B0000);">City, Canada</span> (e.g. <span class="example deprecated-content example-bad" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-removed, #8B0000);">Halifax, Canada</span>), although it is permissible to create a title of this type as a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirect" title="Wikipedia:Redirect">redirect</a> to the properly titled article. Similarly, a title that uses the province's two-letter postal abbreviation should never be the actual article title, although creating a redirect is normal practice.

Different regions within the riding are separated using em-dashes, even when normal style would use en-dashes (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Kitchener%E2%80%94Waterloo" class="mw-redirect" title="Kitchener—Waterloo">Kitchener—Waterloo</a>). The same is true for a region and its sub-region (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Scarborough%E2%80%94Agincourt" class="mw-redirect" title="Scarborough—Agincourt">Scarborough—Agincourt</a>, but note also <a href="/wiki/Edmonton_Centre" title="Edmonton Centre">Edmonton Centre</a>). Names within each segment are separated with spaces in English, but are often separated with hyphens in French (e.g. <a href="/wiki/St._John%27s_South%E2%80%94Mount_Pearl" title="St. John's South—Mount Pearl">St. John's South—Mount Pearl</a> versus <a href="/wiki/Notre-Dame-de-Gr%C3%A2ce%E2%80%94Lachine" title="Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine">Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine</a>). All reasonable uses of hyphens and dashes should <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirect" title="Wikipedia:Redirect">redirect</a> to the actual article. Note in particular that older sources published before the days of electronic typesetting typically rendered electoral district names with double hyphens in lieu of em-dashes, and it is thus possible that a reader who knows the district's name from a source of that type but is not familiar with the actual naming conventions may erroneously believe the version with double hyphens to be the actual formatting of the name. Thus, a district with one or more em-dashes in its name should have a redirect in place from the version with double hyphens. </p><p>Provincial ridings follow the conventions established by the province's own elections agency. Generally, provincial riding names use hyphens to separate two regions or a region and its sub-region, but this is not always true. One exception is Ontario, which bases its provincial riding boundaries on the federal ones and uses the same names. Another exception is Quebec, which uses hyphens within region names (like French ridings at the federal level) and uses en-dashes to separate regions (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Rouyn-Noranda%E2%80%93T%C3%A9miscamingue" title="Rouyn-Noranda–Témiscamingue">Rouyn-Noranda–Témiscamingue</a>). </p><p>When a riding is renamed with nearly identical boundaries, it does not need a new article. A significant boundary <em>shift</em>, however, should result in a new article instead of a renaming of an old one. When the names and boundaries of federal and provincial ridings are almost identical (as in Ontario), they may share an article if there's only a small amount of information that can be written about the federal vs. provincial districts, but should retain separate articles if there's substantial content. </p><p>The word "riding" may be used in articles, but because that usage is unique to Canada, the first time it is used it should either be wikilinked or include the official term "electoral district" in parentheses. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Riding_disambiguation" data-mw-thread-id="h-Riding_disambiguation-Ridings"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Riding_disambiguation-Ridings"></span>Riding disambiguation<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Riding_disambiguation-Ridings"></span></h4><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Riding disambiguation" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1252059228"><div class="module-shortcutanchordiv"><span id="WP:CANRIDINGDAB"></span></div><div class="module-shortcutboxplain noprint" role="note"><div class="module-shortcutlist"><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Shortcut" title="Wikipedia:Shortcut">Shortcut</a></div><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1126788409"><div class="plainlist"><ul><li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:CANRIDINGDAB&redirect=no">WP:CANRIDINGDAB</a></span></li></ul></div></div> <p>In any case where disambiguation is needed in the title of a riding article, use <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">(electoral district)</span>.

However, municipal boundaries are not what a population centre represents—population centre data exists to measure population on the <i>urban</i> vs. <i>rural</i> distinction, and corresponds to clusters of population density rather than to boundaries of municipalities or census metropolitan areas. A place's "population centre" data may be smaller than its municipal "city limits" population, if the city includes both an urbanized core and less densely populated rural areas, or larger, if the city's urban development continues past municipal boundaries into another municipality. In fact, a municipality may not even be a population centre at all, if it does not reach an urban standard of population density or if its urban area is directly contiguous with another municipality's urban area; a community or neighbourhood within a municipality can also be a standalone population centre, if it represents a standalone cluster of urban density surrounded by non-urban areas that separate it from the rest of its municipality. </p><p>For instance, the population centre of <a href="/wiki/Prince_George,_British_Columbia" title="Prince George, British Columbia">Prince George</a> does not encompass the entire city of Prince George, but just measures the urbanized central core while excluding less populated parts of the city such as the rural areas west of Foothills Boulevard or near the airport; the city of <a href="/wiki/Mississauga" title="Mississauga">Mississauga</a> is not classified as a population centre in its own right at all, but as part of the population centre of <a href="/wiki/Toronto" title="Toronto">Toronto</a> since its urban development is continuous with Toronto's; and the city of <a href="/wiki/Greater_Sudbury" title="Greater Sudbury">Greater Sudbury</a> has eight distinct population centres within it, as several urbanized parts of the city are separated from each other by bands of unpopulated industrial or entirely undeveloped land. </p><p>"Population centre" lists are to precisely reflect Statistics Canada's population centre data, and are not to be altered to reflect different numbers or to add places that Statistics Canada does not classify as their own population centres. </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(3)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Geography" data-mw-thread-id="h-Geography"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Geography"></span>Geography<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Geography"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Geography" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-3 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-3"> <p>For a geographical feature (river, mountain, valley, island, etc.) that requires disambiguation, the standard convention is "Name of Feature (Province)".

For example, the <a href="/wiki/Parti_Qu%C3%A9b%C3%A9cois" title="Parti Québécois">Parti Québécois</a> does not have a recognized English name—the standard usage by speakers of <a href="/wiki/Canadian_English" title="Canadian English">Canadian English</a> <em>is</em> the untranslated name "Parti Québécois". On the other hand, the <a href="/wiki/Parti_Rhinoc%C3%A9ros" class="mw-redirect" title="Parti Rhinocéros">Parti Rhinocéros</a> is <em>not</em> usually referred to in English by its official French name, but by the unofficial translation "<a href="/wiki/Rhinoceros_Party" title="Rhinoceros Party">Rhinoceros Party</a>".

Do <em>not</em>, however, create a translated redirect if the translated name is <em>not</em> demonstrably linked to the topic—for example, <a href="/wiki/Rivi%C3%A8re-du-Loup" title="Rivière-du-Loup">Rivière-du-Loup</a> has <em>never</em> been referred to in English as "Wolf River" (its historical English name was "Fraserville"), and <a href="/wiki/Notre-Dame-du-Nord,_Quebec" class="mw-redirect" title="Notre-Dame-du-Nord, Quebec">Notre-Dame-du-Nord</a> has never been referred to as "Our Lady of the North". </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Institutions" data-mw-thread-id="h-Institutions-French_names"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Institutions-French_names"></span>Institutions<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Institutions-French_names"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: Institutions" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <p>For many current institutions (hospitals, universities, etc.) in Quebec, standard Canadian English usage is ambiguous and not clear-cut: some English speakers refer to the <a href="/wiki/Universit%C3%A9_du_Qu%C3%A9bec_%C3%A0_Montr%C3%A9al" title="Université du Québec à Montréal">Université du Québec à Montréal</a>, while others refer to the "University of Quebec at (or in) Montreal", while still others simply use the acronym UQAM (you-kam). In such cases, title the article with the <em>proper</em> name of the institution in French, and create redirects from any English translations that are genuinely likely to be used as alternate search or link terms. However, where there is a single standard and generally accepted English name for the institution, use that rather than the French name (e.g. <a href="/wiki/National_Assembly_of_Quebec" title="National Assembly of Quebec">National Assembly of Quebec</a> rather than "Assemblée nationale du Québec") <em>regardless</em> of whether that name is "official" or not. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Places_2" data-mw-thread-id="h-Places_2-French_names"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Places_2-French_names"></span>Places<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Places_2-French_names"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Places" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <p>For geographic names, again, the current practice is to reflect <em>actual</em> English usage. Specifically, the unaccented names <a href="/wiki/Montreal" title="Montreal">Montreal</a>, <a href="/wiki/Quebec" title="Quebec">Quebec</a> and <a href="/wiki/Quebec_City" title="Quebec City">Quebec City</a> (as opposed to "Montréal" or "Québec") are the majority usages in English. However, usage for most smaller cities and towns in the province is less clear-cut, due in part to the lesser number of documented English references. As with institutions, some places in fact may have <em>several</em> competing "English" forms rather than one standard one—for example, <a href="/wiki/Trois-Rivi%C3%A8res" title="Trois-Rivières">Trois-Rivières</a> could be referred to in English by simply maintaining the French spelling as is, by dropping the accent but keeping the hyphen ("Trois-Rivieres"), by dropping the hyphen but keeping the accent ("Trois Rivières") or by dropping both the accent and the hyphen ("Trois Rivieres"). Accordingly, for most municipal names in Quebec apart from those noted above, use the French spelling unless a clear usage consensus in favour of an alternate name (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Montreal_West,_Quebec" class="mw-redirect" title="Montreal West, Quebec">Montreal West</a> rather than Montréal-Ouest, <a href="/wiki/Mount_Royal,_Quebec" title="Mount Royal, Quebec">Mount Royal</a> rather than Mont-Royal, etc.) is seen outside of Wikipedia. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="People" data-mw-thread-id="h-People-French_names"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-People-French_names"></span>People<span data-mw-comment-end="h-People-French_names"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=21" title="Edit section: People" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <p>People's names should reflect the spelling most correctly used in reference to that specific person, <em>regardless</em> of how the same name might or might not be spelled by a different person.

Each person should be titled with the form of the name actually used by that particular person; do <em>not</em> follow a blanket policy of <em>always</em> keeping or <em>always</em> dropping the accent across all people on Wikipedia who happen to possess that surname. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Artistic_works" data-mw-thread-id="h-Artistic_works-French_names"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Artistic_works-French_names"></span>Artistic works<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Artistic_works-French_names"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=22" title="Edit section: Artistic works" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <p>For films from Quebec that have been released in English Canada or the United States, use the title under which the film was released in the English market, but create a redirect from the original French title. For films that did not garner release under a distinct English title, use the original French title and do <em>not</em> rename the film with an <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOR">original research</a> translation. (For instance, <i><a href="/wiki/Monsieur_Lazhar" title="Monsieur Lazhar">Monsieur Lazhar</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Incendies" title="Incendies">Incendies</a></i> were both released to English markets under their original names, <em>not</em> under translated titles.) Wherever relevant, however, other articles (e.g. the filmographies of actors and directors, <a href="/wiki/Genie_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Genie Award">Genie Award</a> and <a href="/wiki/Canadian_Screen_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Canadian Screen Award">Canadian Screen Award</a> articles, lists of Canadian films by year, etc.) should list <em>both</em> the English and French titles, with one appearing in parentheses after the other. Note, as well, that if an English title can be <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">verified</a>, even by a primary source such as a film streaming site, that title automatically takes precedence even if most or all of the sources actually present in the article referred to it under its original French title. The overarching concern is providing a title that an English speaker would be able to use to find the work if they wanted to view it. </p><p>Additionally, for films, the redirect from the French title should be categorized in <a href="/wiki/Category:Quebec_films_by_French_title" title="Category:Quebec films by French title">Category:Quebec films by French title</a>, so that users who know the films by those titles rather than the English ones still have the opportunity to find them. (Note, however, that if multiple French-title redirects exist for the same film, such as for accented and unaccented forms, it is not necessary to categorize all of them in the French titles category—categorize <em>only</em> the one that represents the <em>most</em> strictly correct French form.) </p><p>Television series from Quebec, however, are usually <em>not</em> exported to English-speaking markets, and thus usually have no English name. Most television series, thus, should be titled with their original French titles, and <em>not</em> translated into English. However, when such a series has also been seen in English markets under an English title (e.g. <i><a href="/wiki/He_Shoots,_He_Scores" title="He Shoots, He Scores">He Shoots, He Scores</a></i>, <i><a href="/wiki/Nic_and_Pic" title="Nic and Pic">Nic and Pic</a></i>), then use the English title with a redirect from the French. </p><p>However, as with places whose names might have multiple forms, if a film or television series has more than one distinct English title (e.g. <i><a href="/wiki/L%C3%A2cher_prise" title="Lâcher prise">Lâcher prise</a></i>, which was known as <i>Freefall</i> in some English markets and <i>Let Go</i> in others, or <i><a href="/wiki/%C3%80_tout_prendre" title="À tout prendre">À tout prendre</a></i>, which went into some English markets as <i>All Things Considered</i> and others as <i>Take It All</i>), then use the original French title rather than editwarring over which English title was more "definitive" than others. </p><p>Works of French literature that have been republished in English translation, similarly, should be named with the title of the English translation, with a redirect from the original French title. Works that have not been republished in an English translation should be named with their original French title. </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(5)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Historic_sites" data-mw-thread-id="h-Historic_sites"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Historic_sites"></span>Historic sites<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Historic_sites"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=23" title="Edit section: Historic sites" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-5 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-5"> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Heritage_conservation_in_Canada" title="Heritage conservation in Canada">Heritage conservation in Canada</a></div> <p>Properties in Canada can be designated as being of historic, or heritage, value by different levels of government. When one is referring in an article to historic designation(s) applicable to a site, it is important to specify the specific designation(s) and to not confuse or conflate the designations (they are not interchangeable and confer different legal protections). Typically, designations are ordered international/federal/provincial/municipal rather than by date. </p><p>In Canada, we usually use the term "designated" to described a property that has been granted official heritage status. Depending on the circumstances, we can refer to a site being designated under a particular statute (e.g. the <a href="/wiki/Aberdeen_Pavilion" title="Aberdeen Pavilion">Aberdeen Pavilion</a> is designated under the <a href="/wiki/Ontario_Heritage_Act" title="Ontario Heritage Act">Ontario Heritage Act</a>) or designated as a certain type of historic site (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Halifax_City_Hall" title="Halifax City Hall">Halifax City Hall</a> is designated a Municipally Registered Property under the <a href="/wiki/Heritage_Property_Act_(Nova_Scotia)" title="Heritage Property Act (Nova Scotia)">Nova Scotia Heritage Property Act</a>). We often avoid the term "listed" since it means different things in different jurisdictions (e.g. in Vancouver "listed" can mean the same thing as "designated", while in Toronto a "listed" property is one that has <em>not</em> been designated, but rather has been identified for potential future designation). We similarly avoid the term "protected", since some designations offer no legal protections, while some others provide limited, or appealable, protections. </p><p>Inclusion on the <a href="/wiki/Canadian_Register_of_Historic_Places" title="Canadian Register of Historic Places">Canadian Register of Historic Places</a> (CRHP) is not the same thing as being designated.

If a particular usage is more common in English, such as "Montreal", then that name should be used throughout the article and in the article's title. In that regard, "Iqaluit" is to be used over "Frobisher Bay", despite the latter's more apparent English origin.</li> <li>The infobox name field ("<code>name</code>") should contain the most commonly used place name in English. This field should be at the top, and should be more prominent than entries in the alternative ("<code>other_name</code>"), native ("<code>native_name</code>") and official name ("official_name") fields. These other names should only be added if they are official and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:RS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:RS">verifiable</a>, and should be presented below the primary name, preferably in smaller type. Additionally, an official name in another language should be included only if the short form portion of the name is substantively different from the English name—such as Montreal/Montréal, Mount Royal/Mont-Royal, Greater Sudbury/Grand-Sudbury or Iqaluit/ᐃᖃᓗᐃᑦ. If the name is spelled the same in both languages, such that the only difference between the two forms is the class noun (e.g. "City of"/"Ville de") that each language attaches to it, then do <em>not</em> include the French name as separate information.</li> <li>Names should only be prefaced with "City of" in the "<code>official_name</code>" field, and then only if such usage is verifiable. “City of X” should not be used in the primary name field ("<code>name</code>") or other fields.</li> <li>The settlement type field should use English-language terminology such as "city", "municipality", "community", or "town". Non-English terms such as "ville" and "communauté" should be avoided.</li> <li>Place names should not be translated based on the etymological origin of the name.

There is no such thing as an -AM suffix in broadcasting—the actual legal call sign of an AM radio station is always just <var style="padding-right: 1px;">Cxxx</var>. However, because of the frequent need to disambiguate them from FM or TV stations, or other things with the same acronym, Wikipedia uses the format "Cxxx (AM)" when necessary. As many readers are not familiar with this convention, a title in the format <var style="padding-right: 1px;">Cxxx-AM</var> may be created as a redirect to the <var style="padding-right: 1px;">Cxxx</var> or <var style="padding-right: 1px;">Cxxx (AM)</var> title, but is never to be the primary title. </p><p>The brand name may, however, be created as a <em>redirect</em> to the call sign (e.g. <a href="/wiki/MIX_99.9" class="mw-redirect" title="MIX 99.9">MIX 99.9</a>), a disambiguation page (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Q107" class="mw-disambig" title="Q107">Q107</a>) or an article about the brand itself if it has a substantial history (e.g. <a href="/wiki/EZ_Rock" title="EZ Rock">EZ Rock</a>, <a href="/wiki/Jack_FM" title="Jack FM">Jack FM</a>, <a href="/wiki/NRJ_(Quebec)" class="mw-redirect" title="NRJ (Quebec)">NRJ</a>). The only exceptions to this are where a single radio or television network broadcasts across multiple transmitters with different call signs but <em>no</em> local variances in programming—for example, <a href="/wiki/TVOntario" class="mw-redirect" title="TVOntario">TVOntario</a>, <a href="/wiki/TFO" title="TFO">TFO</a>, <a href="/wiki/T%C3%A9l%C3%A9-Qu%C3%A9bec" title="Télé-Québec">Télé-Québec</a> or <a href="/wiki/CKUA_Radio_Network" title="CKUA Radio Network">CKUA Radio Network</a>. In such cases, all of the call signs should be redirects to a single article about the network itself. </p><p>A radio station's article may list certain notable programs that air on the station, but per <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOT">WP:NOT</a>, it is <em>not</em> to list the station's entire broadcast schedule. Only a service whose schedule consists primarily or entirely of programs that are themselves notable enough for independent articles, such as the CBC's national radio networks, may contain a comprehensive schedule—however, programs on local commercial radio stations are rarely notable on their own, and so listing the entire schedule of such a radio station is essentially unencyclopedic <a href="/wiki/Advertising" title="Advertising">advertising</a>. Content that describes a station's programming in greater depth is permitted, however, as long as it is properly sourced and is not just a list of hosts' names. </p><p>The call sign of a <a href="/wiki/Rebroadcaster" class="mw-redirect" title="Rebroadcaster">rebroadcaster</a> should always be a redirect to its programming source, rather than an independent article, unless the call sign has a prior history (e.g. <a href="/wiki/CKNC-TV" title="CKNC-TV">CKNC-TV</a>, <a href="/wiki/CJBR-TV" class="mw-redirect" title="CJBR-TV">CJBR-TV</a>) as an originating station. However, a few Canadian radio stations retain call signs with extra numeric suffixes that make them <em>appear</em> to be rebroadcasters (e.g. <a href="/wiki/CITE-FM-1" title="CITE-FM-1">CITE-FM-1</a>), but are in fact licensed as originating stations. Most stations with call signs of this type, however, are true rebroadcasters. If you see an article titled with such a call sign, please verify it before arbitrarily redirecting it to another article. </p><p>Newspaper articles should reflect the title as it <em>actually</em> appears on the newspaper's masthead. For example, <i><a href="/wiki/The_Globe_and_Mail" title="The Globe and Mail">The Globe and Mail</a></i>, not "Globe and Mail", but <i><a href="/wiki/National_Post" title="National Post">National Post</a></i> rather than "The National Post". If a masthead title is not unique, include the city's name in parentheses as a disambiguator (e.g. <i><a href="/wiki/The_Guardian_(Charlottetown)" title="The Guardian (Charlottetown)">The Guardian (Charlottetown)</a></i>) rather than titling the article with the unofficial form "Charlottetown Guardian". Do, however, create a redirect at the latter title format. Exclude the word "the" from the masthead title if the city's name is present in the publication's proper name (e.g. <i><a href="/wiki/Sudbury_Star" class="mw-redirect" title="Sudbury Star">Sudbury Star</a></i>, not "The Sudbury Star"; <i><a href="/wiki/London_Free_Press" class="mw-redirect" title="London Free Press">London Free Press</a></i>, not "The London Free Press"), but include it if the city's name is <em>not</em> part of the publication's name (as in <i>The Guardian</i> or <i>The Globe and Mail</i>). </p><p>A television series with a non-unique name is disambiguated as "(TV series)"; if that isn't sufficient because another country has had a TV series of the same name, the next preferred step is "(Canadian TV series)", then "(year TV series)", then "(province TV series)" if necessary. Disambiguate TV series by network <em>only</em> as a last resort, as television series can be sold to other countries or even rerun in Canada on a different network than the one that first originated the program. </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(8)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="People_2" data-mw-thread-id="h-People_2"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-People_2"></span>People<span data-mw-comment-end="h-People_2"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=26" title="Edit section: People" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-8 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-8"> <p>Whenever possible, people should be at the name by which they are most commonly known rather than an obscure full name. For example, the <a href="/wiki/Pierre_Trudeau" title="Pierre Trudeau">Trudeau</a>-era Minister of Justice is at <a href="/wiki/Ron_Basford" title="Ron Basford">Ron Basford</a>, not "Stanley Ronald Basford". However, as with Basford or <a href="/wiki/Perrin_Beatty" title="Perrin Beatty">(Henry) Perrin Beatty</a>, do not assume that the person's usual name is necessarily their <em>first</em> name. In some cases (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Bud_Germa" title="Bud Germa">Bud Germa</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bush_Dumville" title="Bush Dumville">Bush Dumville</a>), their most common name may not even be <em>either</em> of their given names. When in doubt, research or ask <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:CWNB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:CWNB">WP:CWNB</a> for assistance. </p><p>For older or less prominent political figures for whom limited sources are available, such as a person who was a backbench MP in the 1890s, it may be difficult to determine which name the person was best known under. In such cases, it is permissible to use the full name as indicated by the Parliament of Canada's website—but Wikipedia does <em>not</em> have an invariable requirement to precisely title-match that source for all figures. If sources can be found for which name a person actually used in their public life, use that name as the title, not the full name as listed in the parliamentary database. Occasionally the parliamentary site will provide this information for you by including an additional given name in parentheses, such as <a href="/wiki/Vic_Althouse" title="Vic Althouse">Victor Fredrich (Vic) Althouse</a>—this <em>means</em> that his most common name, and hence his correct Wikipedia title, is "Vic" rather than "Victor" or "Victor Fredrich". </p><p>Per <a href="/wiki/Canadian_name#French_Canadian_names" title="Canadian name">Canadian name#French Canadian names</a>, if a historical personage from <a href="/wiki/Quebec" title="Quebec">Quebec</a> has a compound given name in the form <var style="padding-right: 1px;">Firstname-Secondname-Thirdname</var> (e.g. <a href="/wiki/Jean_Chr%C3%A9tien" title="Jean Chrétien">Joseph-Jacques-Jean Chrétien</a>) then the common name is automatically presumed as <var style="padding-right: 1px;">Thirdname</var> unless reliable sources show differently. </p><p>For people with non-unique names, the standard hierarchy for disambiguation is as follows: occupation, Canadian occupation, provincial occupation, affiliative (e.g. political party) occupation. Only disambiguate by obscure biographical details such as the person's place of birth, years of life or not-widely-known middle name as an absolute last resort if <em>none</em> of these other disambiguation criteria are sufficient. <em>Never</em> disambiguate a person by geography alone, such as "John Smith (Canada)" or "Jane McGillicuddy (Prince Edward Island)", and never step further down the hierarchy than is necessary at the present time—as in the case of <a href="/wiki/Andr%C3%A9_Bachand_(Progressive_Conservative_MP)" title="André Bachand (Progressive Conservative MP)">André Bachand (Progressive Conservative MP)</a> and <a href="/wiki/Andr%C3%A9_Bachand_(Liberal_MP)" title="André Bachand (Liberal MP)">André Bachand (Liberal MP)</a>, base the chosen disambiguator on their <em>current</em> distinction, not on the fact that one of them <em>might</em> (see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:CRYSTAL" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:CRYSTAL">WP:CRYSTAL</a>) re-enter politics in the future with a different political party. An article can always be moved at a later date if circumstances change. </p><p>Titles for articles about people should also not be disambiguated by municipality, instead of country or province, except as an absolute last resort—for instance, this may be necessary if two different cities in the same province have had mayors with the same name, and no middle initial is known for either one. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Postnominals" data-mw-thread-id="h-Postnominals-People_2"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Postnominals-People_2"></span>Postnominals<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Postnominals-People_2"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=27" title="Edit section: Postnominals" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1252059228"><div class="module-shortcutanchordiv"><span id="WP:CANPRIVY"></span></div><div class="module-shortcutboxplain noprint" role="note"><div class="module-shortcutlist"><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Shortcut" title="Wikipedia:Shortcut">Shortcut</a></div><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1126788409"><div class="plainlist"><ul><li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:CANPRIVY&redirect=no">WP:CANPRIVY</a></span></li></ul></div></div> <p>Do not place honorifics such as <a href="/wiki/The_Honourable" title="The Honourable">Hon.</a>, <a href="/wiki/Doctor" class="mw-disambig" title="Doctor">Dr.</a>, <a href="/wiki/Priest" title="Priest">Fr.</a>, <a href="/wiki/Privy_Council_of_Canada" class="mw-redirect" title="Privy Council of Canada">PC</a>, <a href="/wiki/Member_of_Parliament_(Canada)" title="Member of Parliament (Canada)">MP</a> or <a href="/wiki/Order_of_Canada" title="Order of Canada">OC</a> in the article title. </p><p>The postnominal PC, appearing directly after a politician's name in the article introduction or in the infobox header, has nothing whatsoever to do with their political party affiliation—it means "Privy Councillor", and refers to their membership in the <a href="/wiki/Privy_Council_of_Canada" class="mw-redirect" title="Privy Council of Canada">Privy Council of Canada</a>.

Because an outgoing MP/MLA's term ends at the writ drop, the office is not held by anybody else in the interim, and the date on which the person was officially sworn in as an MP or MLA (which is not the same time or day as the official swearing-in of the first minister and cabinet) is often not <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:RS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:RS">reliably sourceable</a> at all. But even on the rare occasion that an exact swearing-in date is sourceable, it is more important that we follow a <i>consistent</i> practice across <i>all</i> MPs and MLAs, and we cannot make special exceptions to treat some of them differently than others. <p>It is not relevant if a recount or a delay means that the person's victory wasn't formally confirmed for another few days after election day — the election still took place the day it took place, and delays in counting ballots do not change the date on which the ballots were cast. </p><p>The date on which an MP or MLA's resignation from the legislature becomes official is not necessarily the same day that their intention to resign was announced to the media, as an MP or MLA usually gives advance notice of their intention to resign a couple of weeks before actually departing the legislature. </p><p>When ridings are redistributed, if the person's riding name changes then that sets a <em>new</em> office – do <em>not</em> simply tuck the old riding name into a footnote to the current one within a single continuous office, but start a <em>new</em> office field with new term and succession information. </p><p>If an election victory is overturned on recount or the winner disclaims their seat before the end of the appeal period, the effect might be retroactive to election day, depending on the jurisdiction. Articles should treat the candidate as if they were never an MP/MLA after that election, but the situation should be explained in the body or a footnote. </p> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Prime minister or premier </td> <td>Date that the person is formally sworn in by the viceroy. </td> <td>Date that their successor is formally sworn in by the viceroy; date of death if they die in office. </td> <td>The outgoing first minister does not immediately leave office, and the incoming new one does not immediately assume the office, on election day itself; there is a transition period of one to three weeks during which the outgoing first minister is still the incumbent on a <a href="/wiki/Caretaker_government" title="Caretaker government">caretaker</a> basis, and the new one is still only a first minister-<em>designate</em>. <p>Under law a first minister's term is officially denoted as ending on the last full day of their leadership, regardless of the fact that the successor is sworn in several hours later during normal working hours rather than instantly at midnight — under this convention, if the new first minister is sworn in on June 13, then their predecessor's term would be denoted as ending on June 12 even though they were technically still first minister for part of June 13. However, media sources do not normally follow this convention, and consider the outgoing first minister's term as ending only at the actual moment of handover. Wikipedia consensus has settled on following the common media practice rather than the official legalese one. Articles do run the risk of being inconsistent with each other at times, however, if different articles have been edited on opposite sides of this practice; if you notice a conflict between two different articles as to the end date of a prime minister's or premier's term, check with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:CANTALK" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:CANTALK">WP:CANTALK</a> rather than directly editwarring over it. </p> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Party leader </td> <td>Date that the person officially assumes the leadership of the party. </td> <td>Date that their successor (whether convention-selected or interim) officially assumes the leadership of the party. </td> <td>The leadership is not immediately handed over the exact moment the winner of the leadership convention is announced; party constitutions may vary, but normally the person's leadership becomes official somewhere between one day and a week after the date of the convention balloting itself. </td></tr> <tr> <td>Governor general or lieutenant governor </td> <td>Date that the person is formally sworn in. </td> <td>Date that their successor is formally sworn in; date of death if they die in office. </td> <td>The date that the viceroy is formally sworn in is not the same as the date on which the identity of the new viceroy is initially announced to the media; rather, the initial announcement is virtually always made several weeks before the person actually assumes the office. </td></tr> <tr> <td>Cabinet minister </td> <td>Date that the person is formally sworn in. </td> <td>Cabinet minister who is succeeded by another cabinet minister, whether in a cabinet shuffle or due to a change of government in an election: date that their successor is formally sworn in. <p>Cabinet minister who resigns from the cabinet: date that their resignation becomes official. </p><p>Cabinet minister who dies in office: date of death. </p> </td> <td>Even in the event of a government's defeat in an election, outgoing cabinet ministers still hold the role in a caretaker capacity throughout the period of transition until the new ones are sworn in, so it does not matter that this may sometimes result in a person holding a cabinet position for several weeks past the end of their term as an MP or MLA; there is not even any legal requirement that a cabinet minister has to be a member of the legislature at all, so there is no conflict. <p>Unlike the situation for MPs or MLAs who resign from the legislature, however, resignations from cabinet are much more commonly immediate rather than on a "two weeks notice" basis. </p> </td></tr> <tr> <td>Mayor or city councillor </td> <td>Date that the person is formally sworn in. </td> <td>Officeholder who is replaced in a general election: date that their successor is formally sworn in. <p>Officeholder who resigns from the position between elections: date that their resignation takes formal effect. </p><p>Officeholder who dies in office: date of death. </p> </td> <td>City councils in Canada actually function more like the situation in the United States House of Representatives than in Canadian parliaments. Unlike legislatures, they typically have a longer transition period after the election, sometimes even as long as one or two full months in some cities; city councils are never "dissolved" prior to a municipal election, and the elections are scheduled by law rather than election writ; and the outgoing city councils may in fact still hold one or more "caretaker" meetings after the election. Accordingly, mayors and city councillors are never denoted as taking or leaving office immediately on election day: the exact dates of the official swearing-in ceremonies are always used for all municipal positions. </td></tr></tbody></table> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Law" data-mw-thread-id="h-Law-Politics"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Law-Politics"></span>Law<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Law-Politics"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=31" title="Edit section: Law" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1252059228"><div class="module-shortcutanchordiv"><span id="MOS:CANLAW"></span></div><div class="module-shortcutboxplain noprint" role="note"><div class="module-shortcutlist"><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Shortcut" title="Wikipedia:Shortcut">Shortcut</a></div><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1126788409"><div class="plainlist"><ul><li><span class="plainlinks"><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MOS:CANLAW&redirect=no">MOS:CANLAW</a></span></li></ul></div></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Legislation" data-mw-thread-id="h-Legislation-Law"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Legislation-Law"></span>Legislation<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Legislation-Law"></span></h4><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=32" title="Edit section: Legislation" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div> <p>When writing an article about a piece of legislation, whether it has passed into law or not, title the article with the short name of the legislation, and <em>not</em> with a title in the form "Bill #".

(The long form name is permissible as the primary title if a short form name cannot be properly sourced, although this should virtually never be anything more than a temporary measure.) Bill numbers, however, are routinely repeated in different contexts—different legislative bodies, different sessions of the same legislative body, etc.—and thus a bill number is almost never an unambiguous or unique name.

The naming convention for a standalone article is "YYYY City (comma-province/territory if necessary) municipal election"; merged articles that cover multiple municipalities are named in the format "YYYY Jurisdiction (county, province, territory, etc.) municipal elections". School board elections are <em>never</em> given their own separate articles, but are discussed only in municipal election articles. </p><p>In Toronto, current practice is to use the main "municipal election" article primarily to cover the city council races, while spinning off a separate "mayoral election" for the citywide mayoral race. Generally speaking, most other Canadian cities do not require this treatment, however: it is restricted in principle to the largest metropolitan cities, although to date the editors who work on municipal election articles in Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa, Calgary or Edmonton have not actually pursued this approach. In those other five cities, the mayoral spinoff approach would potentially be valid as well, although editors who wish to pursue it are requested, in advance of going ahead with it, to open a consensus discussion at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:CANTALK" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:CANTALK">WP:CANTALK</a> to determine whether adequate editorial will actually <em>exists</em> or not to move in that direction. Outside of those six cities, however, keep the mayoral race in the main municipal election article. This is done in Toronto because the amount of <em>work</em> that editors have been willing to actively <em>put into</em> the articles pushes them into "long enough to warrant spinoffs" territory; however, the other cities have never really attracted the same level of hypercommitment, and instead their municipal election articles still consist almost entirely of results tables with very little added context. </p><p>Federal or provincial by-elections do not each get their own separate standalone article, but rather are discussed as subsections of a larger common article such as <a href="/wiki/By-elections_to_the_41st_Canadian_Parliament" title="By-elections to the 41st Canadian Parliament">By-elections to the 41st Canadian Parliament</a>. A municipal by-election, similarly, should normally be covered as a followup subsection of the previous regular municipal election's article rather than as its own standalone topic; however, an exception may be made for a municipal by-election which can demonstrate a significant claim to being more notable than usual, such as the school board controversy that caused the <a href="/wiki/2017_Vancouver_municipal_by-election" title="2017 Vancouver municipal by-election">2017 Vancouver municipal by-election</a> to include the complete election of an entirely new school board. </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(10)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Currency" data-mw-thread-id="h-Currency"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Currency"></span>Currency<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Currency"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Canada-related_articles&action=edit&section=35" title="Edit section: Currency" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-10 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-10"> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main page: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:%24" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:$">WP:$</a></div> <p>For currency values in articles on Canadian topics, the <a href="/wiki/Canadian_dollar" title="Canadian dollar">Canadian dollar</a> is considered the default currency where an unprefixed dollar sign is used e.g. <span class="example" style="font-family: Georgia, 'DejaVu Serif', serif; color: var(--color-content-added, #006400);">$123.45</span>.
