The Council of Science and Technology Advisors (CSTA) was a Canadian institution active between 1998 and 2007. It was created to support the goals expressed in Science and Technology for the New Century – A Federal Strategy, issued by the Government of Canada in March 1996.[1] Its primary task was to provide strategic advice to the Cabinet Committee for the Economic Union on the management of the federal science and technology enterprise.[2][3]

In 2006, CSTA consisted of 22 representatives from academia, industry and not-for-profit organizations. They were appointed by the Ministers of federal science-based departments and agencies.[4] The CSTA was abandoned in 2007 alongside the Advisory Council on Science and Technology (ACST), the Canadian Biotechnology Advisory Committee (CBAC), and the Office of the National Science Advisor (NSA).[5]
