Canada’s AI confidence gap is growing.

This report shows how to close it.

We surveyed over 1,000 Canadians in partnership with Angus Reid to better understand how workers across industry sectors, income levels, and regions are engaging with AI in the workplace.

The findings are clear: while adoption is rising, confidence is not. This report outlines where the gaps are, who’s being left behind, and what needs to happen next—starting with national investment in upskilling.

A snapshot of the results:
Key insights from our national survey on AI confidence, adoption, and the future of work in Canada.

Only one in three Canadians feels confident using AI at work
Despite rising adoption, most workers lack the training to use these tools effectively.

Access to AI education is limited
68% would take employer-offered training, but only 14% have received any at all.

Equity gaps persist
Women, BIPOC, and lower-income workers report higher fear of job loss and lower access to training.

Canada ranks last in public trust and training on AI
Without intervention, we risk widening our skills gap—and falling behind globally.
