Author
Most Statistics Canada documents will have the author as Statistics Canada. This is considered a group or corporate author.
Publisher
Because the author and publisher are both Statistics Canada, the word Author is used where you'd normally put the Publisher's name.
Note: All citations should be double spaced and have a hanging indent in a Reference List.
A "hanging indent" means that each subsequent line after the first line of your citation should be indented by 0.5 inches.
