Local fit

Why hire a native Canadian editor

Hiring a editor who is actually based in Toronto 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 editor writes in the spelling, currency and legal conventions used across Canada, references Toronto and wider Ontario 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.
