加拿大地球科學的目標是:出版加拿大地球科學的一般興趣文章，或加拿大以外的地球科學的發展，這些可能是加拿大人特別感興趣的。這些文章將以技術水平撰寫，不僅專業研究人員可以理解，其他地球科學分支的非專業人員也可以理解。

The goal of Geoscience Canada is: to print general-interest articles about the earth sciences in Canada, or about developments in the earth sciences outside Canada, which are likely to be of special interest to Canadians. These articles will be written at a technical level that can be understood not only by specialist research workers but also by non-specialists in other branches of the earth sciences.
