Statistics Canada - About us
Our mission: Serving Canada with high-quality statistical information that matters.

What we do

Statistics Canada, a member of the Innovation, Science and Economic Development Portfolio, produces statistics that help Canadians better understand their country, its population, resources, economy, society and culture.

In addition to conducting a Census every five years, there are about 350 active surveys on virtually all aspects of Canadian life.

In Canada, providing statistics is a federal responsibility. As Canada's central statistical office, Statistics Canada is legislated to serve this function for the whole of Canada and each of the provinces and territories.

Objective statistical information is vital to an open and democratic society. It provides a solid foundation for informed decisions by elected representatives, businesses, unions and non-profit organizations, as well as individual Canadians.
