Key Insights
Our National Scorecard is a way of cutting through the noise to pinpoint where we are leading, where we’re on track, what needs attention, and where Canada is falling behind.
It is a comprehensive look at the crucial factors that contribute to responsible population growth and compares Canada’s performance to similar countries or against goals set nationally. Each of the 40 indicators in the Scorecard are interconnected, spanning across many traditionally siloed sectors and areas of policymaking and practice. Collectively, they tell a powerful story, assessing the groundwork that we must lay to secure Canada’s economic and social prosperity.
The National Scorecard has been designed to help key actors in all sectors discuss and identify the factors that will allow Canada to plan for population growth that brings shared benefits to everyone who does and will call Canada home. In other words, it provides the foundation for a plan to grow well.
Century Initiative encourages everyone to use the Scorecard as a shared tool to drive systems change. This direction has never been more important. As immigration and population growth have reached the top of the national agenda, there is a deep need for dialogue on the path forward. Rooted in findings of the Scorecard, Century Initiative will support key stakeholders across Canada to engage on the role of population growth in long-term prosperity.
