The Canadian Global Almanac is a Canadian reference book containing a large collection of facts and statistics. It grew out of the American World Almanac and Book of Facts when in 1986 an all Canadian version was published, edited by John Filion and published by Susan Yates. John Robert Columbo later became its editor. While it was being published, a new edition was released each year in November. The almanac has not been published since 2005.
