1. Introduction

The Property Values Program produces annual estimates of assessment values of properties at provincial and territorial level across Canada. These estimates are produced using a common price date, which corresponds to July 1st of the year preceding the tax year under evaluation. Finance Canada uses these estimates to determine fiscal capacity with respect to property taxes for the Equalization program and the Territorial Formula Financing (TFF) program. ^{Footnote 1} To ensure comparability of the data, a number of adjustments are made. They include: the coding of property categories to a common classification; the adjustment of values to a common price base date and to a common volume state (or stock) date; and the imputation of missing property values. Additionally, other removals and adjustments are carried out to produce estimates of annual assessment values at a common price date that meet the requirements for determining fiscal capacity.

This document presents these adjustments in more detail.

2. Key definitions

a. Price base date (PBD) ^{Footnote 2}

The price base date (referred to as “valuation” by Data Providers) is the fixed point in time at which all properties are valued by assessment agencies. Within each province or territory, the same PBD applies to all properties.

The target price base date (TPBD) serves as the benchmark for price adjustments within the Property Values Program. It is set as July 1st of the year preceding the tax year under assessment. For instance, the TPBD for the tax year 2024 (TY2024) corresponds to July 1st, 2023.

b. Volume state date (VSD)

The volume state date (referred to as “condition” by Data Providers) is the fixed point in time when the full stock of active properties and their physical condition are reflected in the official Assessment Roll.

The target volume state date (TVSD) serves as the benchmark for volume adjustments within the Property Values Program. It is set as January 1st of the tax year under assessment. For instance, the TVSD for the tax year 2024 (TY2024) corresponds to January 1, 2024.

c. Residential property

Defined as all types of property categorized as residential for assessment purposes in the majority of provinces and territories. It includes single and multi-unit properties, farm residences, cottages and vacation homes, mobile homes, and vacant lands which are designated for residential purposes.

d. Non-residential property

Defined as all types of property categorized as non-residential for assessment purposes in the majority of provinces and territories. It includes industrial, commercial and institutional properties, engineering construction and mining properties, and vacant lands which are designated for non-residential purposes.

Agricultural properties ^{Footnote 3} (excluding residential dwellings on farm property, which are considered residential property for the Property Values Program) as well as the value of machinery and equipment improvements on properties are excluded from final estimates.

e. Properties subject to municipal, provincial, territorial and federal payment-in-lieu

Defined as municipal, provincial, territorial and federal government-owned property for which owners remit payment-in-lieu of taxes to municipal governments or local taxation authorities.

3. Input data

a. Data sources

Assessment data series are collected from provincial, territorial and municipal assessment entities and are based on municipal assessment rolls. Data providers agree to provide the data on a regular basis either through formal agreements or responding per data request.

Starting in January 2018, assessment roll microdata is gradually being received from every jurisdiction, to replace the use of assessment roll aggregate data. In 2025, we received assessment roll microdata for the tax year 2024 from 12 provinces and territories, up from five provinces and territories for the tax year 2016. See Annex 1.

b. Unit reported

Data series are reported either at the municipal, property or sub-property level.

4. Auxiliary data

a. Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data

Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data is produced by the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA). The data files are obtained via Haver Analytics, a company that is the sole distributor of CREA MLS data. MLS data is aggregate monthly residential sales data reported as dollar volume sales and the number of units sold by real estate boards. Data is available at provincial or sub-provincial level for all provinces and territories with the exception of Québec, for which only provincial-level data is available. No data is available for Nunavut. MLS data files are used for price adjustment.

b. Building Permits (BPER) and Investment in Building Construction (IBC) data

Data on the number of residential and non-residential building permits issued, as well as investment in construction completion, by type of work (e.g., new units, conversions, etc.), is obtained from Statistics Canada's Building Permits (BPER) and Investment in Building Construction (IBC) programs. The data is produced monthly, by jurisdiction. These data files are used for volume adjustment.

c. Census of Population

Data from Census of Population are available every five years. Between census years, yearly average owner-occupied dwelling values, referred to as "intercensal" values, are derived using linear interpolation. ^{Footnote 4} These values are used for the imputation of missing property values.

d. Municipal boundary changes

Municipal boundary changes are mapped to the 2021 census geography using the “Interim List of Changes to Municipal Boundaries, Status, and Names.”

The list is usually produced on an annual basis for changes that occurred during the previous year. A five-year list is produced on Census of Population years. The Property Values program uses the report for the mapping of new municipalities to the Census 2021 geography during the intercensal period. Upon the publication of the 2026 Census, the Property Values program will reconcile the intercensal municipal changes to the new census geography.

5. Classification

a. Geography

A municipality covered by the collected data is assigned to a Census Subdivision (CSD). The assignment of CSDs is reviewed yearly to reflect changes (municipal amalgamations, legal status changes, etc.) that occur during the year. During the period between censuses, these municipal changes are mapped to their prior census subdivisions, census year 2021. Accumulated intercensal changes are revised to their new CSDs in the year following the publication of the census.

CSDs containing First Nations or other autonomous or self-governing areas are out of scope for Fiscal Arrangements purposes. As a result, these CSDs are not included in the provincial estimates.

b. Type of property

The type of property classification is reviewed to improve comparability of the data amongst provinces and territories. The classification of properties is more precise when more details are available in the data.

6. Imputation for missing data

There exist municipalities or regions that are not assessed by provincial or territorial assessment agencies, and therefore no property taxes are levied. As a result, assessment values are missing for some jurisdictions, mostly in unorganized areas. ^{Footnote 5} Additionally, on occasion, some municipalities submit their assessment values to assessment agencies later than when the data is required. Missing property assessment values for these municipalities are imputed.

For taxation year 2024, there were 142 jurisdictions (CSDs) with missing data that were imputed, 132 of which were in Newfoundland-and-Labrador, 8 were in Northwest Territories and 2 were in Saskatchewan.

a. Imputation of residential values

The imputation strategy relies on three key assumptions: (1) the reported average owner-occupied dwelling values from CSDs in the same province and population group are expected to be similar; (2) the composition of the residential housing mix is consistent between the donor and imputed population group; and (3) property tax assessors would have valued properties similarly in both the donor group and imputed population group.

During the intercensal period, an average owner-occupied dwelling value (Intercensal OODV) is found from the forward extrapolation in time to the relevant Tax Year, for the CSD, the line that connects the owner-occupied dwelling counts from two prior census values. For Tax Year 2024 those would be the 2016 Census of Population and the 2021 Census of Population.

Residential property value in a geography is the sum of all of owner and non-owner-occupied dwellings, vacant dwelling properties and vacant residential land. Although the concept of average owner-occupied dwelling value differs from that of residential property value, under the assumptions we may assume that:

$\frac{RPV of Imputed CSD}{RPV of Donor CSD}=\frac{Intercensal OODV of Imputed CSD}{Intercensal OODV of Donor CSD}=Rati{o}_{Intercensal}$

Therefore, the imputation formula is:

$RPV of Imputed CSD=(RPV of Donor CSD)\times Rati{o}_{Intercensal}$

Where RPV refers to the total Residential Property Value of a CSD.

In order to produce an imputed value that best reflects the price base date and volume state date:

• the number of private dwellings is taken from the yearly intercensal file of the same year as the volume state date of the assessment roll file; and
• the average owner-occupied dwelling value is taken from the yearly intercensal file or derived from assessed values of the same year as the price base date of the assessment roll file.

The resulting imputed values are then processed and adjusted ^{Footnote 6} using the same methodology as for assessment roll values.

b. Imputation of non-residential values

Unlike the imputation for residential property values where dwelling values from intercensal files can be used to estimate the value of residential properties, no similar direct indicator is available for non-residential properties. Therefore, non-residential values are imputed using data of CSDs with similar Census population counts within the same province or territory.

Ratios of the total non-residential values over the total population are calculated using data from CSDs for each population class (see table 1 below) for each province and territory. These ratios ^{Footnote 7} are then applied to the population count of the missing CSD to derive the imputed non-residential value. Most of the missing CSDs are from rural areas.

Table 1 – Population class used for imputation on non-residential values ^{Footnote 8}

Population Class	Description
1	Rural
2	Small Sized Municipalities
3	Medium Sized Municipalities
4	Large Sized Municipalities

7. Price adjustments

Due to differences in assessment practices and frequency of revaluation cycles, data received does not always align with the target price base date (TPBD) of July 1 of the year preceding the taxation year.

a. Choice of source data vintage

To minimize price adjustments, data from the file whose price base date (PBD) most closely aligns with the target price base date (TPBD) is used to produce estimates for a given taxation year. If two input files have the same time interval between their PBD and TPBD, the file with the smallest difference between the volume state date (VSD) and the target volume state date (VSD) is selected.

b. Jurisdictions that are not price adjusted

The following provinces do not undergo price adjustments as their PBD corresponds to the TPBD:

• Quebec
• Alberta
• British Columbia

c. Residential price adjustment

Sale and resale values are used in the reassessment of properties by assessment agencies. Multiple Listing Service (MLS) resale data is a suitable candidate as a proxy for this information. However, sales data is not the only information that is used by assessment agencies in determining assessment values. Other inputs such as demolition/construction permits, renovation permits, construction costs, physical inspections and other indicators are incorporated into their modelling methodology. In addition, MLS resale values are a subset of all residential property values as they exclude private sales and properties that have not sold in many years. Consequently, while MLS resale values provide a useful indicator, they do not always closely reflect the price movements of assessment values.

Statistics Canada does not attempt to replicate the modelling of assessment agencies. Instead, it relies on price indices to adjust assessment values to the target price base date.

c1. Modelling of assessment values

For certain provinces, reassessments occur yearly or on a frequent basis and the target PBD is close to the PBD of the data received. To make better use of the assessment data collected since the onset of this program and to improve the quality of estimates, a price index is generated by calculating the polynomial trend^{Footnote 9} of average values by property class. Using average values excludes the effect of yearly changes in volume (new construction and demolition) and helps isolate price movements. Such an index is referred to as the Assessment Roll Trend (AR Trend). This modelling is performed at the provincial level.

This method is used in the following provinces:

• Newfoundland
• Prince Edward Island
• Nova Scotia
• New Brunswick

c2. Modelling of MLS monthly resale values

For the remaining provinces and territories (except Nunavut), to capture annual price movements, a price index is generated by calculating the polynomial trend of seasonally adjusted MLS monthly average resale values. These polynomial trend series are calculated by MLS jurisdiction and applied to the corresponding CSDs.

This method is used in the following provinces and territories:

• Ontario
• Manitoba
• Saskatchewan
• Yukon
• Northwest Territories

c3. Modelling of donor values for Nunavut

As resale data do not exist for Nunavut, Statistics Canada uses data for the region of northern Quebec ^{Footnote 10} as a proxy for this territory. ^{Footnote 11} The property assessment data is provided by the provincial government of Quebec.

The Nunavut residential index is calculated using an average of residential and non-residential property values from Quebec data. ^{Footnote 12}

An annual series is generated and converted into a monthly series by adding one twelfth of the dollar difference between two observations to each successive month between observed values (linear interpolation), thereby creating a monthly index. Residential price-adjustments are then applied to Nunavut property values using the same algorithm (for ratios) developed for resale data.

d. Non-residential price adjustment

Unlike residential properties, non-residential properties (more specifically institutional, commercial, and industrial) are not often for sale. It is therefore comparatively more difficult to find appropriate market indicators for non-residential price adjustment. To overcome this, the correlation between residential and non-residential price changes was analyzed.

A regression analysis was performed, and a model was constructed using assessment data from four provinces: Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Quebec, and British Columbia. The reasons for using these specific four provinces are twofold: (1) these provinces evaluate their non-residential property stock on an annual basis ^{Footnote 13} and (2) they report data for both assessment values and numbers of non-residential properties. This level of detail allowed the derivation of the annual non-residential price movements. The conclusion was to use the model coefficient of 0.7336 as a discount factor to the residential series.

The discount factor methodology was satisfactory for several years, while MLS resale values observed consistent behaviour compared to non-residential values. However, over the years, the correlation between residential and non-residential values became weaker. Combined with the fact that assessment data was collected since 2006, it became realistic to favour the development of the polynomial trend of assessment data (AR Trend) methodology to replace the discount factor methodology, when possible.

d1. Modelling of non-residential assessment data

Similar to the modelling of residential assessment data, non-residential assessment data is modelled using polynomial trend of average values by broad property type.

This method is used in:

• Newfoundland (provincial level)
• Prince Edward Island (provincial level)
• Nova Scotia (provincial level)
• New Brunswick (provincial level)
• Ontario (separate modelling for Toronto and rest of province)
• Manitoba (separate modelling for Winnipeg and rest of province)

d2. Discount factor applied to MLS polynomial trend series

For the remaining provinces and territories (except Nunavut), it is not possible to model the assessment data as the reassessment cycles are long and there is not yet sufficient source data for modelling. In these cases, the discount factor is used to adjust the non-residential property values using the MLS polynomial trend series of residential properties. In the future, it may become possible to update this methodology, as more assessment data become available.

This method is used in:

• Saskatchewan
• Yukon
• Northwest Territories

d3. Discount factor applied to Nunavut price index

Similarly, the discount factor is applied to Nunavut’s residential price index.

e. Calculating the price adjusted value

It involves price index preparation, price adjustment ratio and adjusted value calculation.

Price index is generated using polynomial regression model on either MLS average prices or assessment averages.

The price adjustment ratio is calculated by taking the index value at the target price base date (TPBD) over the index value at the price base date (PBD) of the source data. This ratio is then applied to the assessment value to yield the adjusted value at the TPBD.

$Rati{o}_{PADJ}\mathit{=}\frac{\mathit{I}\mathit{n}\mathit{d}\mathit{e}\mathit{x}\mathit{V}\mathit{a}\mathit{l}\mathit{u}\mathit{e}\mathit{T}\mathit{P}\mathit{B}\mathit{D}}{\mathit{I}\mathit{n}\mathit{d}\mathit{e}\mathit{x}\mathit{V}\mathit{a}\mathit{l}\mathit{u}\mathit{e}\mathit{P}\mathit{B}\mathit{D}}\mathit{ }$

$AssessmentValu{e}_{\mathit{T}\mathit{P}\mathit{B}\mathit{D}}\mathit{ }\mathit{=}\mathit{ }Rati{o}_{\mathit{P}\mathit{A}\mathit{D}\mathit{J}}\mathit{ }\mathit{\times }\mathit{ }AssessmentValu{e}_{\mathit{P}\mathit{B}\mathit{D}}$

8. Volume adjustments

Volume adjustments ensure that property values reflect a common target volume state date (TVSD) of January 1st of the taxation year. For assessment data with a volume state date (VSD) earlier or later than the TVSD, the value of all completed construction that occurred between the two dates is estimated using Statistics Canada's monthly Building Permits Program and Investment in Building Construction Program. The estimated value is then added to or subtracted from the total property values, as applicable. This methodology is applied to both residential and non-residential property values. 

Residential volume adjustments typically represent less than 2% of total estimated values, while non-residential adjustments may slightly exceed this threshold.

9. Removals and adjustments in accordance with typical property assessment and taxation practices

a. Removal of CSDs on account of First Nations and other Aboriginal Groups

Census subdivisions which are First Nations reserves, and autonomous or self-governing areas are removed as they are deemed out of scope. Such CSDs are identified based on their CSD type.

b. Exclusion of exempt residential property

In some provinces, certain properties are identified as exempt from property taxes in the input files received from the assessment agencies. Any values associated with these properties are excluded from the estimates for the purposes of fiscal arrangements.

c. Exclusions of schools, churches and hospitals

The most important non-residential properties which are generally exempt from property taxes are schools, churches and hospitals (S/C/H).

Some provinces and territories provide detailed breakdowns of S/C/H in their assessment data. For these jurisdictions, the exact proportion of S/C/H is removed from the final estimates.

For provinces and territories where the S/C/H breakdowns are not available, the proportion of S/C/H assessment values relative to total non-residential assessment values is estimated by applying the proportion of S/C/H property values from a comparable reporting province or territory. It should be noted that values for engineering and mining properties are excluded from the total non-residential assessment values used in calculating the S/C/H proportions.

The list of provinces and territories used in the calculation of estimated S/C/H proportions depends on data availability and may vary from year to year as new microdata is received. 

d. Removal of properties subject to provincial-territorial and municipal payments-in-lieu of taxes

Instead of paying regular property taxes, federal and provincial governments typically provide a payment in lieu of taxes (PILT) for their exempt properties. However, only federal PILT properties represent fiscal capacity for the consolidated provincial-territorial-municipal-local sector; provincial and territorial PILT properties as well as municipal institutional properties are excluded.

e. Adjustments in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut

Unlike in the provinces and the Yukon, property assessments in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut do not consistently follow market value standards.

Land values within the municipal taxation areas (Iqaluit in Nunavut; Yellowknife, Fort Simpson, Fort Smith, Hay River, Norman Wells and Inuvik in NWT) reflect full market value. In contrast, land values in the remainder of the two territories (i.e. in the General Taxation Areas) are, according to the data provider, based on average regional development costs.

Improvements (i.e. buildings) in both territories are assessed based on depreciated Edmonton construction costs, using Alberta's depreciation schedule. The resulting value for Yellowknife is then multiplied by a regulatory factor of 1.35, which, according to the assessment data provider, reflects Yellowknife's actual construction costs relative to Edmonton's. As a result, Yellowknife's assessed building values approximately reflect market value. ^{Footnote 14}

Outside of Yellowknife, in both territories, a discount factor of 0.666 has been applied to building values initially assessed at depreciated Edmonton construction costs. This factor, also set out in regulations, was reportedly introduced to encourage development. During data processing, this embedded 0.666 scaling factor is removed from the building values in the Nunavut and Northwest Territories outside of Yellowknife and Iqaluit.

f. Machinery and equipment values

Property values for machinery and equipment (M&E) components in the non-residential category are considered out of scope.

g. Removal of personal property values in Manitoba

The assessment roll in Manitoba includes personal property which is not considered real estate property. Such property values are excluded from the estimate.

h. Mixed-use properties

Some properties are used for both residential and non-residential purposes. In cases where no further breakdown is available, the values of mixed-use properties are redistributed between residential and non-residential property types according to the existing distribution of total residential and non-residential property values by CSD. Where further breakdowns are available, mostly in jurisdictions where microdata was received, the values are assigned according to the exact breakdown. Mixed-use residential and non-residential properties that are redistributed represent 0.015% of the total valuation of properties in Canada.

One of the most common cases of mixed-use properties is of a building with ground-level commercial space and one or more floors of residential units above.

10. Quality control

Statistics Canada's quality assurance framework requires an assessment of data relevance, accuracy, timeliness, accessibility, interpretability and coherence. The quality of the raw input data collected from provincial, territorial and municipal assessment departments and agencies cannot be directly evaluated within this framework. However, confrontational analysis is performed to compare the source data with previously received data. Any irregularities identified are carefully reviewed and analyzed prior to the official release of the data.

Statement outlining results, risks and significant changes in operations, personnel and program

A) Introduction

Statistics Canada's mandate

Statistics Canada ("the agency") is a member of the Innovation, Science and Industry portfolio.

Statistics Canada's role is to ensure that Canadians have access to a trusted source of statistics on Canada that meets their highest priority needs.

The agency's mandate derives primarily from the Statistics Act. The Act requires that the agency collects, compiles, analyzes and publishes statistical information on the economic, social, and general conditions of the country and its people. It also requires that Statistics Canada conduct the Census of Population and the Census of Agriculture every fifth year and protects the confidentiality of the information with which it is entrusted.

Statistics Canada also has a mandate to co-ordinate and lead the national statistical system. The agency is considered a leader, among statistical agencies around the world, in co–ordinating statistical activities to reduce duplication and reporting burden.

More information on Statistics Canada's mandate, roles, responsibilities and programs can be found in the 2025-2026 Main Estimates and in the Statistics Canada 2025-2026 Departmental Plan.

The Quarterly Financial Report:

• should be read in conjunction with the 2025-2026 Main Estimates;
• has been prepared by management, as required by Section 65.1 of the Financial Administration Act, and in the form and manner prescribed by Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat;
• has not been subject to an external audit or review.

Statistics Canada has the authority to collect and spend revenue from other federal government departments and agencies, as well as from external clients, for statistical services and products.

Basis of presentation

This quarterly report has been prepared by management using an expenditure basis of accounting. The accompanying Statement of Authorities includes the agency's spending authorities granted by Parliament and those used by the agency consistent with the Main Estimates for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. This quarterly report has been prepared using a special purpose financial reporting framework designed to meet financial information needs with respect to the use of spending authorities.

The authority of Parliament is required before moneys can be spent by the Government. Approvals are given in the form of annually approved limits through appropriation acts or through legislation in the form of statutory spending authority for specific purposes.

The agency uses the full accrual method of accounting to prepare and present its annual departmental financial statements that are part of the departmental results reporting process. However, the spending authorities voted by Parliament remain on an expenditure basis.

B) Highlights of fiscal quarter and fiscal year-to-date results

This section highlights the significant items that contributed to the net increase in resources available for the year, as well as actual expenditures for the quarter ended September 30.

Chart 1 outlines the gross budgetary authorities, which represent the resources available for use for the year as of September 30.

Significant changes to authorities

Total authorities available for 2025-26 have increased by $97.1 million, or 11%, from the previous year, from $881.3 million to $978.4 million (Chart 1). The net increase is mostly the result of the following:

• An increase of $86 million in funding received to cover the advanced planning and intensifying production activities related to the ramping up of the 2026 Census of Population program;
• An increase of $14.5 million in funding related to compensation following the ratification of collective agreements;
• An increase of $12.2 million for the Employee Benefit Plan adjustments and for the carry forward from the previous year. The agency leverages the operating budget carry-forward mechanism to manage the cyclical nature of program operations and investments in the agency's strategic plan;
• A decrease of $32.4 million for various initiatives including Cloud Operations and the Canadian Dental Care Plan;
• An increase of $13.4 million for various initiatives including Canada’s Action Plan on Combatting Hate, the Clean Technology Data Strategy as well as funding to modernize and enhance the collection and dissemination of housing data, supporting Canada’s Housing Plan.

In addition to the appropriations allocated to the agency through the Main Estimates, Statistics Canada also has vote net authority within Vote 1, which entitles the agency to spend revenues collected from other federal government departments, agencies, and external clients to provide statistical services. The vote netting authority is stable at $120 million when comparing the second quarter of fiscal years 2024-2025 and 2025-2026.

Significant changes to expenditures

Year-to-date net expenditures recorded to the end of the second quarter increased by $6.3 million, or 1.6% from the previous year, from $388 million to $394.3 million (see Table A: Variation in Departmental Expenditures by Standard Object).

Statistics Canada spent approximately 45.9% of its authorities by the end of the second quarter, compared with 51% in the same quarter of 2024-2025.

Note: Explanations are provided for variances of more than $1 million.

Personnel: The increase is primarily due to the cyclical nature of some of Statistics Canada’s programs, including the Census of Population program.

Professional and special services: The decrease is mainly attributable to the salaries of workers hired under the Statistics Act to operate the Census Help Line and to undertake data collection work during the Census Test, which began and ended in 2024. Additionally, there has been timing differences in invoicing compared to last year. 

Rentals: The decrease is mainly related to software licences, reflecting a reduction in costs as well as timing differences in invoicing compared to last year.

Revenues: The increase is mainly due to timing differences in invoicing compared to last year.

C) Significant changes to operations, personnel and programs

In 2025-26, the following changes in operations, personnel and program activities are underway:

• The 2026 Census of Population program is ramping up in preparation for next year when the Census will be conducted. As a result, expenditures for this program are increasing.
• Cloud funding is secured for 2025-26; however, funding to continue cloud operations beyond 2026–27 is not included in the agency’s appropriations, as an enterprise-wide funding model is pending. In December 2023, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat announced the GC Application Hosting Strategy which included the centralization of cloud operations within Shared Services Canada (SSC). As per the direction, a temporary transfer agreement, effective September 2024, was signed by Statistics Canada (StatCan) and SSC, to transfer certain cloud operations functions from StatCan to SSC which includes the corresponding human resource capacity to ensure continuity of StatCan’s cloud infrastructure operations.

D) Risks and uncertainties

Statistics Canada continues to address financial and operational uncertainties through its corporate risk management framework. Budget variations, particularly from cyclical programs such as the Census and anticipated adjustments stemming from the Comprehensive Expenditure Review require agile planning and strategic resource management. To ensure long-term financial sustainability, the agency is strengthening partnerships with government entities and modernizing its digital infrastructure.

To support its modernization efforts, Statistics Canada is strengthening its statistical operations and continuing to invest in workforce development and organizational efficiency. The agency remains dedicated to fostering an inclusive and diverse workplace while streamlining operations and optimizing resources. Through continued collaboration with federal partners, the agency is reinforcing its financial stewardship and ensuring a resilient, adaptable organization that meets the evolving needs of Canadians.

Has Canada become a sedentary nation?

Health data have never been more accessible. We have smart watches to count our steps, notifications about our screen times and apps to track our daily diets.

Despite the futuristic tech, researchers are growing concerned. And they’re especially concerned about young Canadians.

Today we sat down with Rachel Colley, a senior health researcher at StatCan for a deep dive into Canada’s obesity, physical activity and screen time trends. And the new data from the Canadian Health Measures survey may surprise you. 

The prevalence of overweight and obesity is on the rise in Canada: New results from the Canadian Health Measures Survey, 2022 to 2024
