This is a list of Canadian provinces and territories by their Human Development Index, which is a comparative measure of life expectancy, literacy, education, standard of living and overall well-being of the citizens in each province and territory. All Canadian provinces and territories have a very high (greater than 0.900) HDI. The 2021 estimate merges the province and territories of Prince Edward Island, Northwest Territories, Nunavut and Yukon into one, rather than classifying them separately.
