Canada launches CanadaLogin single sign-on for federal services

Canada's government has begun a gradual rollout of CanadaLogin, a single sign-on service meant to replace about 90 separate access routes to more than 270 federal online services. A roadmap adds face-biometric identity verification tied to government documents between April and September 2027, plus provincial IDs and later higher assurance levels. The plan shows national digital identity being consolidated step by step into one account, a pattern that matters because access to services increasingly depends on verified identity.
