R wrapper for calling CensusMapper APIs
Release candidate addressing https://github.com/mountainMath/cancensus/issues/187 and https://github.com/mountainMath/cancensus/issues/184. Enhaancement https://github.com/mountainMath/cancensus/issues/185 is probably more of a longer term project, but we could try and work at least the CSV xtabs into this one...

Wouldn't mind updating and fleshing that out a bit more with additional examples. We both like the mapdeck package, and I think the tmap package provides a great high level...
The new c++ based json parser simdjson is making some waves with _very impressive_ benchmarks compared to established parsers like jsonlite. An R implementation just hit CRAN: https://github.com/eddelbuettel/rcppsimdjson. Perhaps risky...
This isn't really a client R package issue but it would need to be implemented in the package as well. We should have more informative error messages for malformed API...
In the 2021 dataset, the 4 CMAs that share a provincial border between 2 provinces (for example GeoUID 505 and its sub-parts 35505 (Ontario part) and 24505 (Quebec part)) all...
Is there a possibility to get something similar to https://censusgpt.com/ for cancensus?
