list_cansim_cubes

Generates an overview table containing metadata of available Statistics Canada data cubes.

Searches for, accesses, and retrieves Statistics Canada data
tables, as well as individual vectors, as tidy data frames.
This package enriches the tables with metadata, deals
with encoding issues, allows for bilingual English or French language data retrieval, and bundles
convenience functions to make it easier to work with retrieved table data. For more efficient data
access the package allows for caching data in a local database and database level filtering, data
manipulation and summarizing.
