Leaders at Canadian companies reported limited access to high-quality data sources for employees working with AI, and fewer centralized tools that can be reused—meaning staff were more likely to build tools from scratch, according to a PwC survey. The 34 Canadian company leaders surveyed said their workforces were less likely to be offered ongoing, role-specific AI training sessions and were less likely to trust AI-generated insights than the global average of 1,220 corporate leaders surveyed.

Talking point: These findings were part of a broader measure of how corporate AI usage translates into efficiency and revenue growth. While PwC wasn’t able to provide an exact measure on how Canadian firms are faring when it comes to AI-related revenue, partner Annie Veillet said the survey raises concerns. She said PwC has seen a correlation between companies that make it easier for workers to use AI, and companies that report AI-related revenue growth or reduction of employee hours. “When I’ve looked elsewhere in the world, we’re definitely behind,” she said in an interview.
