On February 17, 2025, Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) published mission roadmaps for quantum computing, quantum communication and post-quantum cryptography (PQC), and quantum sensing under the National Quantum Strategy.
ISED said the roadmaps were developed through consultation with Canada’s quantum community and describe challenges, gaps, opportunities, and agreed actions. The department said the documents include short-, medium-, and long-term objectives for federal and provincial governments, academia, industry, and not-for-profit organizations on the National Quantum Strategy mission roadmaps page.
