The Traits of Plants in Canada (TOPIC) open access empirical measurements module provides access to an open dataset of direct observations collected in the field, laboratory, greenhouse or garden. The Traits of Plants in Canada (TOPIC) database serves as a hub for centralizing knowledge on plant functional traits in Canada. Under the Canadian Trait Network, this database allows the integration of trait data from large, disconnected scientific sources to facilitate research on plant and forest ecology, community ecology and forest sustainability. Following international standards, the database ensures that the datasets are properly documented and archived, facilitating their re-use and discoverability. **Please cite TOPIC open as follows: ** Aubin, I., Boisvert-Marsh, L., Munson, A.D. 2021.
