In Canada, homeschooling has increased in popularity since the advent of the 21st century.[1][2][3][4] It is legal in every province, with each province having its own regulations around the practice. In some provinces, funding is available.[5] In 2016, the number of homeschooled children in Canada was approximately 60,000 (for comparison, there were approximately 2.5 million in the US); this corresponds to approximately one in every 127 school-aged children (US: one in every 32 children).[5] In 2020, the average growth rate of the practice amounted to more than 5 per cent per year.[2] Canada has a large proportion of non-religiously motivated homeschoolers compared to some other countries.[5] It is also one of three countries worldwide, along with the United States and South Africa, that hosts an organization with lawyers on staff which serves the legal needs of home educators.[6]
