The 2020-2021 Opportunities for Physical Activity in Canadian Communities study examines municipal perspectives on programs, facilities, policies and opportunities for physical activity.

This 2015 study examines municipal perspectives on programs, facilities, policies and opportunities for physical activity.

The Canadian Fitness and Lifestyle Research Institute conducted a study entitled the 2015 Survey of Physical Activity Opportunities in Canadian Communities to explore factors associated with physical activity (PA) at the local level. Administrators in communities with at least 1,000 residents were asked to report on their awareness and use of physical activity- or sport-oriented resources in community programming. This bulletin summarizes these findings.

The 2015 Survey of Physical Activity Opportunities in Canadian Communities also asked communities with at least 1,000 residents to report on the specific types of information considered to be useful for informing residents about how to become more active. This bulletin summarizes these findings.

The 2015 Survey of Physical Opportunities in Canadian Communities asked small communities with fewer than 1,000 residents whether they worked with various community organizations and/or institutions when developing physical activity and sport facilities, programs and services. Furthermore, communities were also asked if they have agreements with local school boards and sports organizations regarding the shared use of school and municipal facilities, and sharing resources and programming (e.g., instructors, officials, equipment).

The Canadian Fitness and Lifestyle Research Institute’s 2015 Survey of Physical Activity Opportunities in Canadian Communities examined factors associated with physical activity and sport at the local or community level. The survey asked municipal administrators (in communities with at least 1,000 residents) to indicate whether various facilities and programs to support or promote physical activity for families are available in their communities.

The Canadian Fitness and Lifestyle Research Institute conducted the 2015 Survey of Physical Activity Opportunities in Canadian Communities which looked at factors associated with physical activity and sport at the local or community level. Municipal administrators (in communities with at least 1,000 residents) were asked about potential sources of funding for the provision of sport and physical activity facilities and programming. This research bulletin explores these sources in relation to community characteristics.
