Our mission:
Serving Canada with high-quality statistical information that matters.
What we do:
Statistics Canada, a member of the Industry 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.
Your future and the future of our organization lie in the hands of bright, driven people. People like you.
Endless possibilities are available to you if you decide to become part of our core mission: To serve Canada with data that matters, data that can make a difference.
By expanding on your knowledge, you can help change the landscape of our organization, foster meaningful change for Canada’s economy, environment, social programs and more. And let’s not forget, you can help decision-makers formulate needed policies for our society and our economy.
The question is: Are you ready?
