《加拿大居民旅行调查（Travel Survey of Residents of Canada，TSRC）》是衡量加拿大旅游业规模与发展现状的核心数据来源。该调查旨在测算国内旅行的规模、特征及经济影响，自2005年起取代了原《加拿大旅行调查（Canada Travel Survey，CTS）》。

该调查从需求侧衡量加拿大国内旅行的规模，其调查目标包括：提供加拿大居民按出行出发地、目的地、行程时长、住宿类型、出行目的、交通方式等维度划分的旅行人次与支出数据；统计旅行参与率，并刻画旅行者与非旅行者的社会人口学特征。基于调查数据可在全国、省级及旅游区域层面（精度存在差异）开展季度分析，涵盖以下内容：
- 加拿大居民在境内开展的当日往返与过夜旅行总规模
- 加拿大境内的当日往返与过夜到访人次
- 旅行主要目的/核心活动
- 加拿大居民在境内开展的当日往返与过夜旅行的总支出及分类支出情况
- 旅行中使用的交通方式（主要/其他）
- 加拿大境内各到访地的人次到访、家庭到访、总支出及分类支出数据
- 加拿大境内各到访地的总人夜数与团夜数，以及按住宿类型划分的对应数据
- 旅行套餐的使用情况、关联支出，以及大巴/其他有组织导游团的使用情况
- 支付来源（家庭、政府、私人雇主）
- 参与/未参与旅行的成年人的人口统计学特征
- 旅行同行人员构成

该调查包含三类数据文件：出行档案（Trip File）、到访档案（Visit File）与个人档案（Person File）。
