In 2017, the Ontario government set out a three-year Anti-Racism strategic plan to identify and eliminate systemic racism and advance racial equity in the province. The Anti-Racism Act, 2017 (ARA) provides the framework and requirements for the strategy and establishes targets and indicators to measure its effectiveness. Under this strategy, race-based data collection is being implemented in the justice, education and child welfare sectors to address racial inequities. Health information custodians, such as hospitals and other providers are not covered under the ARA. A report of the Anti-Racism strategic plan was issued in 2020 and 2021. Under the ARA, the government must review the strategic plan at least every five years.
