    Hi John Rochard Jr,
    May be these will help you.

    The Canadian Register is a searchable database containing information about recognized historic places of local, provincial, territorial and national significance.

    Remember, the Canadian Register is a work in progress. Current listings represent only a fraction of the total number of Canada's recognized historic places. New listings are added every week so if you don't find what you're looking for today, come visit the Canadian Register again!

    A historic place is a structure, building, group of buildings, district, landscape, archaeological site or other place in Canada that has been formally recognized for its heritage value by an appropriate authority within a jurisdiction.

    Over 20% of Canada's historic buildings have already been demolished. (That's the same as wiping out about 60 Canadian university campuses.) We need to work together to protect these remaining places. Make your choice - how do you want to protect a historic place near you?
    • Take steps to get it recognized
    • Get involved in your local heritage organization
    • Check out our library of resources to get up to speed
    The Canadian Register allows everyone to discover Canada's amazing historic places.

    With the new Canadian Register of Historic Places, you can:
    • search the Register by place, by name, by keyword, by postal code, by region, by use, and by jurisdiction;
    • search your community and find nearby places;
    • search via a mobile phone.
