Assess barriers faced by minority groups in Canada through cross-country engagement and develop a new federal anti-racism strategy to combat discrimination and racism.

What success looks like

A new results-focused Federal approach is developed to address discrimination and racism.

Government's narrative on progress

Cross-country engagement sessions to better understand the barriers faced by minority groups in Canada were completed in March 2019. Collaboration with other government departments is ongoing to ensure the robustness of a future federal anti-racism approach. Budget 2019 earmarked $45 million over the next three years for a new Anti-Racism Strategy, including the creation of an Anti-Racism Secretariat.

Note: this is the government's own description, not an independent assessment.
