The Scout section of Scouts Canada is for boys and girls ages 11 to 14 (optional to 16). The program offers two main types of badges, Challenge Badges and Activity badges. The Challenge badges are round whereas the Activity badges are square or diamond shaped. The Activity badges have two levels indicated by the border colour and shape: red and square shaped for Voyageur and green and diamond shaped for Pathfinder. Activity badges are required to achieve 3 out of the 4 awards, the Voyageur Scout Award, the Pathfinder Scout Award and the Chief Scout's Award, the fourth being the World Scout Environment Award.

To obtain the Chief Scout's Award, the highest rank in Scouts Canada at the Scout level, one must earn the Pathfinder Scout Award, the Standard First Aid Award (St. John Ambulance or Red Cross), at least one Challenge badge from each category, the World Scout Environment Award, do a presentation about the World Scouting Movement and make a challenging program for each of the 4 categories (Citizenship, Leadership, Outdoor Skills and Personal Development). The Citizenship program must require 30 hours of leadership to others. After these 6 steps, you are eligible for the Chief Scout's Award.

This award is designed to demonstrate a Scout's concern for, and active stewardship of, the environment. The badge shows Antarctica the only collectively managed continent in the world and one of the most at risk from climate change at its center. The other land forms create a world image inside a green border. In order to earn it, the Scout must complete the Climate Change and Emergency Preparedness Challenge badges, do at least 2 of the following badges (Fish and Wildlife, Soil and Water Management, Forestry), make a presentation about how their community is addressing climate change, research a local environment issue and do an 8 hour environmental project with their troop.
