list_cansim_cubes

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

Searches for, accesses, and retrieves new-format and old-format Statistics Canada data
tables, as well as individual vectors, as tidy data frames. This package 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. Optional caching features are provided.
