Canvas helps institutions simplify teaching and learning while giving faculty and leadership the flexibility to adapt to changing student needs, funding realities, and provincial priorities. Here are a few of the reasons Canadian institutions are making the switch to Canvas:

Student-preferred

A modern, mobile-first experience that meets students where they are and supports how they learn.

Open ecosystem

Connect 500+ tools and custom LTIs without locking your institution into rigid systems.

AI that supports teaching

Secure, opt-in innovation with tools designed to support, not replace, educators.

From classroom to career

A connected path from classroom learning to skills, credentials, and career readiness, supporting Canada’s growing focus on workforce-integrated learning.

Open source is the answer. Why would we solve yesterday’s problems as we proceed into the future? We need to do more than respond; we need to anticipate change.

Simon Fraser University knew their old system was holding them back, so they traded a clunky experience for a classroom-like digital environment that was ready for the future of learning. They quickly implemented and cleared the technical roadblocks with Canvas, creating a reliable, friendly space for students and faculty to learn and teach.

I can’t say enough about the support Canvas provides. Before Canvas, it could be a week or so before we got a response. Now we always hear back within 24 hours.
