Spending on research and development, 2019 (final), 2020 (preliminary) and 2021 (intentions)
Early estimates of Canada’s gross domestic expenditures on research and development for 2021 indicate that spending declined 1.4% to $40.1 billion. This decrease was driven by an 8.7% reduction in funding by the federal government, which follows a slight increase of 0.7% in 2020 which was also mainly attributed to the federal government. Of the remaining funding sectors, only the business enterprise sector is anticipated to have had a decrease in spending in 2020 (-3.1%).
