The Canadian Astronomy Long Range Plan 2020-2030 (LRP2020) is the third in the series of Canadian Long Range Plans for astronomy and astrophysics. LRP2020 has reviewed the field of astronomy and astrophysics, along with associated education, training, and outreach programs, and has produced a list of recommended priorities for the next decade. The resulting plan serves as a single unified vision for the highest priority projects in astronomy in Canada over the period 2020 to 2030.
