Mission Statement

Our vision is a secular Canadian society where compassion, science and reason guide public policy and protect our rights and freedoms. We promote the separation of religion from public policy and foster the development of reason, compassion, science and critical thinking for all Canadians, through secular education and community support.

About This Cause

Humanism is a philosophy or life-stance based upon a profound respect for human dignity and the conviction that we are all ultimately accountable to ourselves and to society for our actions. Our worldview is deity-free and affirms our ability and responsibility to lead ethical and meaningful lives without the reliance upon a belief in the supernatural. As Humanists, we believe that reason and science are the best ways to understand the world around us. And we believe that dignity and compassion should be the basis for how we act towards others. Humanist Canada is committed to advancing free thinking and freedom of choice in Canada so that we can all live in a fair and equal society. Through our ceremonies, educational services, affiliate groups, chapters and partnerships, we bring Humanism to communities across the country while also raising awareness on the national stage.
