Immigration and Nationality: Law and Practice [London].  Quarterly. Tolley Publishing Company.

Foreign diplomatic representatives in Canada.

Note on contacting foreign diplomatic representatives in Canada:

Embassies and high commissions are not usually called for security-related questions such as location of military bases or the functioning of secret services.  Ability to obtain information from diplomatic representatives depends on availability of information and cooperation from individual countries.

Note on contacting Canadian diplomatic representatives serving abroad:

The DIRB must go through the CIC's International Services Group in order to ask questions of Canadian diplomatic representatives serving abroad.  The procedures for contacting Canadian missions will cause delays in responding to Information Requests.  Moreover, ability to obtain information is subject to Canadian missions' resource limitations.

Note:

             This list is not exhaustive.  Country-specific books available in the Resource Centre are not included.
