Requests for information – Science and technology

Under the authority of the Statistics Act, Statistics Canada is hereby requesting the following information which will be used solely for statistical and research purposes and will be protected in accordance with the provisions of the Statistics Act and any other applicable law. This is a mandatory request for data.

Innovation and business strategy

Public sector patent application data

What information is being requested?

Statistics Canada is requesting patent application data from the ExploreIP database to conduct research on the role of public sector intellectual property activities. The data includes information on the number of patents, filing date, licensing status, contact name, title, phone, email, applicants, inventors, technology fields, a description of the patent, the development stage, and the asset type.

What personal information is included in this request?

This data contains personal information such as inventor or applicant name. This information is required to perform data linkages, for statistical purposes only. Once the data is linked, the personal identifiers will be replaced by an anonymized person key.

What years of data will be requested?

Annual data as of 2024 (ongoing).

From whom will the information be requested?

Innovation, Science, and Economic Development (ISED)

Why is this information being requested?

This information is being requested as an alternative data source to create and publish statistics on public sector Intellectual Property (IP). This will help with the production of statistics at a more granular level for the public sector IP. The ExploreIP database combined with data from the new survey on Research Activities and Commercialization of Intellectual Property in Higher Education will provide information on the strategic decisions, innovation activities, and operational tactics of higher education institutions. While there are various ways to measure innovation, patent filings are particularly useful as they require novelty and utility, making them a precise marker of innovation. Similar information is not currently available to the Canadian statistical system. This will allow for the identification of technological trends common among higher education systems by providing valuable information for policymakers and strategists to inform the effectiveness of current policies and strategies aimed at promoting innovation in Canada.

Statistics Canada may also use the information for other statistical and research purposes.

Why were these organizations selected as data providers?

ISED collects and maintains up-to-date data on public sector patent applications in Canada.

When will this information be requested?

September 2024

What Statistics Canada programs will primarily use these data?

ExploreIP will be used to validate results from the new annual survey on Research Activities and Commercialization of Intellectual Property in Higher Education in Canada. This survey is under the responsibility of the Centre for Innovation, Technology and Enterprise Statistics (CITES).

Patent application data

What information is being requested?

Statistics Canada is requesting patent application data from the Canadian Intellectual Property Office to conduct research on the role of intellectual property. The request includes the names and addresses of the inventors, complete details of the invention, and the status of the application.

What personal information is included in this request?

This request contains personal information such as names and addresses of the patent applicants. This information is required to perform data linkages, for statistical purposes only. Once the data are linked, the personal identifiers will be replaced by an anonymized person key.

What years of data will be requested?

Annual data as of 2000 (ongoing).

From whom will the information be requested?

The information is being requested from the Canadian Intellectual Property Office.

Why is this information being requested?

Statistics Canada is requesting patent application data from the Canadian Intellectual Property Office to conduct research on the role of intellectual property in generating economic growth and the role of individuals in creating and mobilizing that intellectual property. Budget 2017 announced the Innovation and Skills Plan, which highlights people as the first pillar and includes a new comprehensive Intellectual Property Strategy. This strategy is intended to support the commercialization of Canadian innovation and creativity in order to foster an ecosystem that supports businesses to grow and compete, with a focus on helping Canadian inventors develop their own intellectual property strategy. By linking the patent application data to the Canadian Employer Employee Dynamics Database, research will include the contribution of patenting to economic growth and the participation of diverse groups in patenting activities, which will inform policy makers.

Statistics Canada may also use the information for other statistical and research purposes.

Why were these organizations selected as data providers?

The Canadian Intellectual Property Office collects and maintains up-to-date data on patent applications and approvals in Canada.

When will this information be requested?

April 2022

Research and development

List of businesses operating in the quantum technologies market

What information is being requested?

A list of businesses operating in the quantum technologies market which includes business identifiers, such as business name, number, and address

What personal information is included in this request?

This request does not contain any personal information

What years of data will be requested?

Data as of 2022 (ongoing)

From whom will the information be requested?

Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada

Why is this information being requested?

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is typically used by Statistics Canada to ensure comprehensive industrial coverage in its business surveys. The current standard, NAICS 2022, does not have a dedicated code for businesses operating in the quantum technologies market. In the absence of such a code, this acquisition will improve Statistics Canada’s ability to build and maintain a survey frame of quantum businesses for use in several of its innovation and technology surveys.

Data users with an interest in the quantum technologies market will benefit from this acquisition by having access to better quality statistics which are more representative of the quantum technologies market. Statistics Canada may also use the information for other statistical and research purposes.

Why were these organizations selected as data providers?

The data provider maintains comprehensive and up-to-date lists of businesses operating in various technology sectors based on its subject matter expertise, including the quantum technologies market.

When will this information be requested?

February 2024

What Statistics Canada programs will primarily use these data?

Sexual and Reproductive Health Data Acquisition Initiative

Opened: December 2021
Closed: June 2022
Results posted: February 12, 2024

Engagement initiative objectives

Statistics Canada is currently in the process of developing a national survey initiative on sexual and reproductive health.

We have engaged with Canadians from diverse perspectives to better understand what is important to them when it comes to sexual and reproductive health and help the Agency develop a respectful approach when designing any survey initiative. The surveys will include topics such as access to resources, services, supports and challenges faced in relation to sexual and reproductive health. Some populations such as women, youth, LGBTQ2 people, racialized Canadians and Indigenous peoples may face different challenges and barriers to accessing sexual and reproductive health support, information and services. In order to ensure the relevancy of the initiative, it is essential to identify information priorities for different populations in order to provide data to support policies and programs which best meet the needs of all Canadians.

How to get involved

This phase of engagement is now closed.

Statistics Canada is committed to respecting the privacy of participants. All personal information created, held or collected by the agency is protected by the Privacy Act. For more information on Statistics Canada's privacy policies, please consult the privacy notice.
