It is our pleasure to present the 2021–22 Departmental Results Report for Statistics Canada.
Over the past year, the various organizations in the Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) Portfolio have together worked hard to make Canada a global innovation leader and build an economy that works for everyone.
As part of ISED's portfolio, Statistics Canada continued to be a data stewardship leader in the federal public service, ensuring that departments can effectively govern and manage their data assets to better serve all Canadians. We are pleased to see how the agency innovated and leveraged its modernization plans to strengthen statistical capacity and frameworks.
In 2021-22, the agency accelerated its delivery of data-driven insights to respond to Canadians' evolving information and decision-making needs for a greener and more inclusive recovery. Statistics Canada also successfully completed the 2021 Census, the results of which will fill data needs of Canadians and inform policy decisions for years to come. The agency's work to improve the quality and availability of disaggregated data will help to ensure that policy decisions benefit all communities.
We invite you to read this report to learn more about how Statistics Canada, like ISED and other portfolio partners, are working with and for Canadians to position Canada as a leader in the global economy.
The Honourable François-Philippe Champagne
Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry
