What Roadmap for the Migration to Post-Quantum Cryptography for the Government of Canada (ITSM.40.001) requires
The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security published ITSM.40.001, Roadmap for the migration to post-quantum cryptography for the Government of Canada, on 23 June 2025. It sets dated obligations for federal departments and agencies rather than general advice. Departments are to develop an initial departmental PQC migration plan by April 2026, and to report on PQC migration progress from April 2026 onwards on an annual basis. Two completion milestones follow. Migration of high priority systems is to be completed by the end of 2031, and migration of the remaining systems by the end of 2035. The structure separates planning and reporting from execution, and separates high priority systems from the remainder, so that departmental progress is measurable at each stage rather than only at the end. The instrument applies to Government of Canada departments and agencies and their IT systems; organisations outside that perimeter may use it as a reference model but are not bound by it.
