Local fit

Why hire a native Canadian proofreader

Hiring a proofreader who is actually based in St Johns changes the work in ways an offshore hire cannot copy. Bilingual by law in many contexts, so French Canadian content is a requirement rather than a nice extra in Quebec. Buyers lean conservative and value proof, and CASL keeps email marketing tightly consent based.

Practically, that means your proofreader writes in the spelling, currency and legal conventions used across Canada, references St Johns and wider Newfoundland and Labrador accurately, works inside your hours so a question does not cost a day, and quotes in CAD. Languages on the bench for this market: English, French.
