Just to make sure we are talking about the same thing: Census Divisions are higher level and more regional boundaries. CSDs are municipal boundaries (in OSM, level 8). http://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/subjects/standard/sgc/2011/sgc-intro
Can you give me an example of city limits that don't match a CSD or is not in the SGC? Usually, the standard for municipal boundaries are the CSDs. At least, as far as I know, this is the standard geography. When referring to actual city limits, which geographical classification is it referring to? Sorry for the questions, I am trying to understand what is the classification used if its not the CSDs.
