Department of Canadian Heritage
Strategic Outcomes

The Canadian Heritage Portfolio, which includes the Department of Canadian Heritage and our major national cultural institutions, plays a vital role in the cultural and civic life of Canadians. We work together to promote culture, the arts, heritage, official languages, citizenship and participation, and Aboriginal, youth, and sport initiatives.

To guide Canadian Heritage in delivering on this mandate, the Department has a strategic framework with three outcomes (shown below). To achieve results for Canadians, our numerous activities align with these outcomes to form a Program Activity Architecture (PAA).
