     Several data objects are loaded, as listed in the table below. The
      'CanadianMoneyData' usage loads the most recently version and 
     other usages loads data as of a given date.

     These data are the components of the Canadian Monetary aggregates.
     They have been "continuity adjusted" so that take-overs and
     mergers do not result in breaks in the series. This involves
     re-arranging historical data so that it reflects the current
     structure of the industry. Trust company deposits are not included
     in some Canadian  monetary aggregates so, if a bank takes over a
     trust company, the historical data for the trust company must be
     added to the bank's  historical data to eliminate a break in the
     series. The series start  at various  dates but continuity
     adjustments prior to 1981 are not  complete. More details about
     the adjustment are provided  in Kottaras (2003).

     The originally released data is usually very accurate because of
     bank reporting requirements. Beware that continuity adjustments
     described above are the main reason for revisions to the data. For
     this reason the "as of" data may not be especially useful for some
     kinds of data revision studies.
