Abstract
This study presents the research results and evaluations of the presence of E-shopping in Canada as well as the impact of COVID on the relevant industries. We first identified keywords related to our topic and then performed an analysis to find the notable academic and industrial actors globally as well as those in Canada. We then analyzed their impact on the scientific, technological, financial, and market impact on the Canadian socio-economic environment. Various resources were used such as Engineering Village (Inspec and Compendex), VOS viewer, PatentScope and Statistics Canada in order to collect the data needed for this investigation. The results were then curated, presented and discussed.
