List of the most prominent summits of Canada

The following sortable table comprises the 150 most topographically prominent mountain peaks of Canada.

The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:

Mount Logan exceeds 5000 metres (16,404 feet) of topographic prominence. Five peaks of Canada exceed 3000 metres (9843 feet), 11 exceed 2500 metres (8202 feet), 41 exceed 2000 metres (6562 feet) and 143 ultra-prominent peaks exceed 1500 metres (4921 feet) of topographic prominence.

Of these 150 most prominent summits of Canada, 108 are located in British Columbia, 20 in Yukon, 16 in Nunavut, ten in Alberta, and one in the Northwest Territories. Three of these summits lie on the British Columbia-Alberta border and two lie on the British Columbia-Yukon border. Four of these summits lie on the international Yukon-Alaska border and three lie on the international British Columbia-Alaska border.
