About the National Showcase

The Students Commission of Canada will bring youth together from across Canada to discuss today’s most pressing issues and ideas that will shape the Canada We Want.

The #CanadaWeWant youth movement is focused on building a country and world where all young people positively transition into a successful adulthood. This year's #CanadaWeWant National Presentation's will be held in-person and virtually. We will bring together young people from coast to coast to coast to imagine the country they want. Let's take a moment to listen to the voice of the youth of Canada.

Different Perspectives, Shared Direction is the theme guiding #CanadaWeWant this year. Across our communities, young people bring diverse perspectives shaped by their lived experiences, identities, and realities. This theme recognizes that there is no single way to see the world — and that our differences are not barriers, but strengths.

By creating spaces where perspectives are shared, heard, and respected, we deepen understanding and build trust. It is through listening openly to one another and learning across differences that we can move forward together, aligned toward a shared direction for the Canada we want.
