Canada’s postsecondary system must pivot to meet economic challenges ahead, RBC report says

October 16, 2025

The Canadian postsecondary system should consider major changes to meet the economic challenges facing the country, according to a new report from Royal Bank of Canada.

The report, published this week, calls for a “postsecondary pivot” to advance national goals. It’s based on the input of about 60 industry and postsecondary leaders who met in Toronto last month at a session convened by RBC Thought Leadership and the Business + Higher Education Roundtable. The focus was on how Canada can produce the talent needed to reorient its economy in response to trade disruptions.
