How is this list made?

We merge OpenStreetMap, Wikidata, Statistics Canada’s ODCAF and the heritage registers into one list of museums, galleries, historic sites, forts, lighthouses, gardens, parks, waterfalls, ski hills, zoos and theme parks. To count, a historic building must show it takes visitors (hours, a fee, a website, a heritage operator or a Wikipedia article); hotels, restaurants and tours are dropped. Places inside the town’s 2021 outline come first, then those up to 5 km beyond it.

Places to visit: Canada publishes no open tourism list, so this one is assembled from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL), Wikidata (CC0), Statistics Canada’s ODCAF museums and galleries (2020, Open Government Licence – Canada), the federal and Québec heritage registers and CPCAD’s national parks, and it reflects what mappers and editors have recorded. Forts, houses, lighthouses and churches count only with a sign that visitors are welcome. Places sit in each town’s 2021 census outline; visitor counts are Wikidata’s latest, with their year.
