Canadian Sustainability Standards Board

The CSSB held its initial meetings from July to November 2023. It focused on setting up operations and advancing the adoption of sustainability disclosure standards in Canada – developing the first Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards to be released for public comment in March 2024.

The CSSB’s first Annual Plan focuses on finalizing and approving the proposed Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards (CSDS). This plan outlines our work for the year, including the development of a multi-year strategic plan and a workplan that reinforces our commitment to involving Indigenous Peoples, communities, organizations, and leaders in our standard-setting process. Read our inaugural Annual Plan to understand how we will drive the implementation of CSDS and continue to advance our sustainability disclosure goals.

The CSSB announces a transition in its leadership. Charles-Antoine St-Jean is transitioning from his position as Chair. Bruce Marchand will be interim Chair.
