Ceremonies play an important part in our lives. Weddings, funerals, baby welcomings and more help us mark major life events, accomplishments and turning points while strengthening our connections to one another. Humanist Canada’s growing network of trained and accredited Officiants perform personal, secular ceremonies that are a true reflection of your values and beliefs. A Humanist ceremony can be traditional or whimsical, formal or casual, simple or elaborate — the choice is yours. Your Officiant works with you to craft a ceremony that sets the tone that’s right for you. Find an Officiant near you.

Humanist Canada supports efforts to advance scientific, academic, medical and human rights critical thinking and education. We act as a resource for secular groups and causes across Canada and we strive to create a more tolerant world, where rational thinking and kindness prevails. Many people are Humanists without even knowing it. If you are non-religious and look to science, reason, empathy and compassion in order to live an ethical and meaningful life, then you may be Humanist.

Humanist Canada members share what Humanism means to them.
