The map on this plate shows as many populated places in the prairies as the scale of the map will permit. It also indicates, within certain limits, the number of inhabitants at each place according to the 1956 Census of Canada. The map also distinguishes between those places which were incorporated and those which were not. Traditionally the Prairie Region is considered to consist of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba yet this map omits much of Alberta and includes part of northwestern Ontario.
