Industry-led, market-driven, and research-based, the mission of the Canadian Tourism Commission (CTC) is to increase awareness of and interest in Canada as a premiere four-season tourism destination.
Together with its public and private sector partners, the Commission undertakes:
-
Macroeconomic, market and industry research;
-
Product and industry development; and
-
Advertising and promotional activities in markets across the globe.
Reflecting these objectives are the two main CTC business lines:
-
Marketing and sales - information marketing and sales activities aim to increase tourism-sector revenues by attracting more and higher-yield tourists from international markets and by encouraging more Canadians to travel at home.
-
Information activities help improve sector decision-making and profitability by researching and communicating market opportunities, new products in demand, trends, barriers to growth, and opportunities to lower transaction costs.
