On this day, Canada is set to take a first step towards a world where everyone is comfortable in a bed.
The country will announce a national bed size of 60-inches, up from 59-inches in 2019, and the government has said it wants a bed that will comfortably accommodate people of all sizes.
The government says a bed size above 60 inches will allow Canadians to comfortably sleep in a home.
Canada’s new bed size charts will help inform decisions made in government and industry about the future of bed design.
The chart below was created by the Department of Justice to help guide decisions in the home and community.
