To All,

 I just received an email saying CanVec 4 has been released.  See the Release Notes link at the bottom of  http://geogratis.cgdi.gc.ca/geogratis/en/collection/28954.html for more info.

File Naming Gripe:
  And personally, I think they put the Edition number on the wrong file.  It should be on the zip file (not the shapefile contained inside) so you can determine if your copy needs to be replaced BEFORE you download it and open it up.  Fortunately they provide a text file of all the NTS sheets indicating if they've been changed:
