| Abstract | A 1-year project undertaken for World Literacy of Canada to survey the Canadian Literacy scene attempted to identify and describe the adult population in need of literacy activities in Canada, to identify and describe the literacy activities being undertaken by existing organizations, communities and individuals in Canada, and to share the findings of the project with interested organizations, government officials and individuals with a view to literacy activity planning in Canada. This summary of the final report (1) describes the problem; (2) describes the characteristics of the target population (geographic distribution, sex, age, residence, ethnic group, birthplace, immigration, labor force participation, unemployment, labor force by industry, and a summary profile); (3) describes existing programs (department of manpower and immigration, corrections, other government programs, school boards, libraries, literacy councils, Literacy Volunteers of America, Frontier College, other programs in the private sector, and sheltered workshops); (4) summarizes characteristics of the programs (instructors, students, regional variations); and (5) lists major issues and concerns emerging from the study and recommendations resulting from the 1975 Adult Basic and Literacy Education Conference in Toronto.
