CANARIE provides vision and leadership for Canada in advanced networking and related technologies by:

  • Building on its established track record in developing and managing Canada's national, ultra high-speed advanced network and extending its reach to 1,100 institutions across Canada;
  • Strengthening our ties with provincial and territorial advanced network partners through ongoing communications and collaboration, and the provision of funding in support of provincial infrastructures and communications programs;
  • Collaborating with other national advanced networks to ensure CANARIE’s technology is leading-edge and aligns with our global counterparts;
  • Engaging regularly with a range of user groups to gather feedback on the use of the network and the future evolution of the network and supporting programs;
  • Managing a range of projects that serve to strengthen research collaboration and the development of sophisticated research operating platforms and tools;
  • Liaising regularly with the Government and granting councils to ensure Canada’s knowledge advantage is effectively supported through CANARIE’s advanced networking capabilities.
"To address the highly complex and global challenges facing society, researchers can no longer work in isolation. They must collaborate. CANARIE enables research teams to connect in novel and highly cost-effective ways, helping them to achieve more – together. This allows Canadian scientists to participate in internationally-acclaimed science projects and contribute to new discoveries with the potential to change our world. The Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI) is proud to work with CANARIE and our many innovation partners to help make this research possible. Together, we are helping Canada to be a full participant in the global marketplace of ideas – and to prosper in the global economy."
