Q: Looking ahead, what capabilities are most critical for the next 12-24 months?

AI and the future of official statistics with André Loranger - Chief Statistician of Canada
Q: What capabilities do statistical offices need to develop to leverage AI?
A blend of traditional statistical expertise with AI literacy, governance, and risk management; a hub-and-spoke model where a core team leads prototyping while the rest of the organization builds AI understanding; metadata design and data engineering becoming core competencies; and a long-term modernization vision (StatsCan 2030) focused on automation and multidisciplinary skills.
AI and the future of official statistics with André Loranger - Chief Statistician of Canada
Q: What does quality mean now in the AI era?

Q: André, can you tell us a bit more about how Statistics Canada is relating to the topic of artificial intelligence, and maybe how you're thinking about this topic?
André outlines five spaces for AI in their approach: using AI to generate operational efficiencies, embedding AI into statistical methods with quality measures, measuring AI's social and economic impacts (TechStats), ensuring data access with AI readiness, and considering how AI changes dissemination and user interactions, including governance and transparency through a trust-centered framework.
Fuel, fear and flights: How the tourism sector learned to withstand global shocks
