Climatic information for building design in Canada 1961 : supplement no. 1 to the National Building Code of Canada / by Donald W. Boyd ; issued by the Associate Committee on the National Building Code.: NR24-28/1960-1E-PDF
"The great diversity of climate in Canada has a considerable effect on the performance of buildings, and consequently the design of buildings should reflect this diversity. The purposes of this handbook are: firstly, by means of maps, to indicate the variability and general distribution of earthquake intensity, permafrost, and those climatic elements that are most frequently considered in building design; secondly, to explain briefly how the design weather values are computed; and, thirdly, to present recommended design data for a number of cities and towns"--Page 3.
