The Canadian Track and Field Championships (French : Championnats Canadiens d'Athlétisme ) is an annual outdoor track and field competition organised by Athletics Canada , which serves as the Canadian national championship for the sport.

The vast majority of foreign winners have come from either Great Britain or the United States.
