This particular Client is based in the province of Quebec, but much of the information contained in the document will be useful to candidates who are considering a move to any of the province or territories of Canada.

We encourage all candidates to ask a lot of questions both of us, and of their future employer, prior to making a decision to accept a position in Canada.
