Astronism is not currently recognised as a religion in Canada although religious freedom for Astronists are practiced in Canada, hence Canada holding the designation of apathetic by the Astronist Institution.

The number of Astronists in Canada has been difficult to calculate, however, estimates put the population at 13,756 as of 2020. Due to the majority of Canadians speaking English, access for Canadian Astronists to content about Astronism is good, however, French-speaking Canadians see considerably less access to Astronist content.
