Note générale :

Accession consists of records created and/or maintained by Canadian National from mid 19th century to early in the 21st century, but predominantly 1850-1940. They were created by the Title Registration Branch and consist of land records, mainly transactions surrounding the building of tracks, train stations and other buildings related to operational activities. There are two types of records in this collection--land folios and maps--which are complementary to each other. The records are, in a large majority, about lands located in Ontario, predominantly southern Ontario, which is understandable as the records were stored at CN Toronto office. However, the collection contains a few records from the province of Quebec and the prairies.

Historique de la conservation :

These records, created by CN, were held at its Toronto office. In 2004, CN decided to move its storage facilities from downtown Toronto to buildings at Concord Yard, outside of the town. CN took this opportunity to sort out the records and to destroy those that were no longer needed for operational activities. The employees from CN Toronto were not aware at that time of the 1969 agreement between CN and Library and Archives Canada (LAC) which stipulates that all archival records must be transferred to LAC.

In 2002, a CN Toronto employee called Mr Edward to alert him about the imminent destruction of archival records. In light of the situation, Mr Edward decided the best course of action was to preserve the records by removing them and keeping them in his own custody. The records were stored for two years before Mr Edward donated them to LAC. Before this irregular transfer, LAC asked CN to take back possession of the records and to transfer them as per the 1963 agreement. However, in 2004, CN declared that it was no longer the owner of these records and recognized that the records now belonged to Mr Edward. Even though CN was in agreement with the fact that this transfer was irregular, they judged the situation to be irreversible. The records were transferred to LAC in June and October 2006 and the donation contract was signed in April 2009.
