I thought I had posted it, but went to cyberspace.

The 1961 NBC has a 'Handbook of Pressure Coefficients for Wind Loads' and for tall square buildings, the Cpe for corners is -1.5 from halfway up the building to the top and is -0.8 for the lower portion.

I don't know if the NBC was applicable in Quebec. At that time, most of the provinces had their own codes.
