Factory in Canada, 1981 - 1986

First of all: there never existed a Factory Records Canada but a licensing deal with Montreal-based PolyGram Inc., since April 1981.
The records were distributed by Saint Laurent-based PolyGram Distribution Inc.

This discography features the Factory/PolyGram Inc. releases from 1981 until 1986 (DJ promos until 1990), because of the unique numbering system used for the releases during that period (with a few exceptions, where the original Factory numbers have been used).

Unallocated numbers: 04, 09, 16, 18, 19, 22.

By 1987, PolyGram dropped the special numbering system (except for DJ promos) for generic six digit numbers (i.e. 8xx xxx) only.

Poster: CA 1987 (Factory/PolyGram Inc.)

Notes:
- Poster for the Canadian Joy Division back catalogue on PolyGram. 
- Quote M. Theriault: "It was 19" X 36". The format was landscape.
  This four colour non commercial poster had a white background with pack shots of
  each of the album covers and 12" singles. I have worked on this for sometime,
  I was truly pleased with the results. The feel was very clean and classic, reflecting and
  complementing Peter Saville's and Brett Wickens' work at the time."
