The IEEE Canada Standards Committee is conceived as a cooperative endeavor between the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) and IEEE Canada (IEEE Region 7), with the support of key industry, standards, and governmental bodies.

The goals of the IEEE Canada Standards Committee are to implement the IEEE Standards Association's globalization initiative in Canada, which includes promoting IEEE-SA positions to Canadian and international standards organizations, and serving as a source of information and positions for IEEE-SA deliberations.

The IEEE Canada Standards Committee was approved in principle by the IEEE Region 7 Board in October 1999. Following that action, an initial committee membership was identified and a charter was developed. In May 2000, the IEEE Region 7 Board officially approved the creation of the IEEE Canada Standards Committee.

The initial emphasis of the IEEE Canada Standards Committee is on the standards needs of the electric utility industry. Standards issues of the Canadian telecommunications industry will be an area of future research.
