| Since the late 1960s, Scouts Canada has suffered from ongoing membership decline in all sections and among adults, especially in the transition between Cubs and Scouts. During this transition, Scouting's [[market share]] drops from between ten and fifteen percent of young people to less than two percent.
| | Depuis la fin des années 60, Scouts Canada a vu ses effectifs diminuer dans toutes les tranches d'ages, particulièrement dans la transition louveteaux-scouts, ainsi que chez les adultes. La pénétration de la population jeune a ainsi chutée de 10-15% à moins de 2%. |

| Scouts Canada conducted a [[Scouts Canada Property Review|property review]] in [[Ontario]] which concluded that 30 camps should be sold. The [[Scouting in Ontario|Scouts Canada Ontario Incorporated Body]] stated that they rated the camps against the following criteria: (1) usage level; (2) financial viability (cost of running property versus income from the property); (3) compliance with environmental, health and safety standards; (4) needs and wants of members (the outcome from youth and volunteer questionnaires); (5) facilities; (6) program resources; (7) program opportunities; (8) property features; (9) availability; (10) capacity; and (11) future direction. Camps were given an opportunity to appeal this decision by showing how they would meet these standards. After the appeal process was completed, the Incorporated Body decided that 14 pieces of property would be sold or that the leases would be given up,<ref>[http://www.scouts.ca/inside.asp?cmPageID=548 Scouts Canada - Official National Web Site: Scouts Canada Ontario Property Review Concluded: 14 Identified for Disposal<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> usually without the agreement of the local Scouting members who use and maintain the property.<ref>[http://scouteh.ca/news/2005-03-30-peacehaven.php Scouts Canada Can't Sell Peacehaven Scout Camp...
