Shaping Canada’s AI future

A new national advisory body bringing together leaders from across Canada to ensure youth, education, and workforce readiness are embedded in Canada’s renewed AI strategy.

In December 2025, Digital Moment launched the National AI Council for Canada’s Future Workforce

Formed in response to the federal government’s ongoing AI strategy renewal following Minister Evan Solomon’s AI Strategy Task Force, the Council brings together leaders from across the AI, education, research, and policy sectors to help shape a national approach that prepares young Canadians to thrive in an AI-driven economy.
