Statistics Canada Thesaurus

Our Products and Services
A traditional thesaurus is a tool that helps people look up synonyms and similar terms. When conducting a web search, in an online environment, people can use many terms to describe the same concept. If you do not use the same word that the search engine (without a thesaurus) does to describe this term, you may be out of luck in finding the information you need. When a user types in a word, there needs to be a way to provide searchers with relevant results employing the synonyms of the words typed.

The Statistics Canada Thesaurus does just that, offering you additional ideas and possibilities to help expand your search, and cutting through the jargon to do so. After selecting your term, you can choose to search the Online Catalogue, the Website or BiblioCat directly.
