General note:

The Vapaus enterprise, remained an integral part of the Finnish Organization of Canadaorganization and its operations until 1935, at which time the Organization transferred the entire publishing operation to the newly incorporated Vapaus Publishing Company Limited. As the major stockholder, the Finnish Organization of Canada naturally retained control of the company. The Vapaus-Vapaus Publishing Company Limited records form an almost complete unit of records documenting those publishing operations from 1917 to 1974.
