Coordinate Frame rotation (geog2D domain)
Approximation derived from tfm code 6864 ignoring time-dependent parameters and assuming ITRF96(1997.0) and WGS 84 can be considered the same within the accuracy of the transformation.

Transformation of coordinates at 5m level of accuracy.
This CRS may sometimes be called "NAD83 / Canada Atlas Lambert". That is the name of a different system (see CRS code 3978) but at the scales involved the positional difference of under 2 metres may not be significant.
