— — — ⚠️ This is a boilerplate template, not legal advice. Employment, consumer-protection, privacy, and food-safety law in Canada is largely PROVINCIAL — this template uses Ontario (Employment Standards Act, 2000 / Occupational Health and Safety Act) as its default reference jurisdiction and flags with ⚠️ the specific British Columbia, Alberta, and Quebec divergences named in the underlying research, but it does not resolve every provincial variation for you. Quebec employers additionally have French-language obligations under the Charte de la langue française (Bill 96) that are handled as a separate French-language document, not by this English template. Have this document reviewed and adapted by a lawyer licensed in the relevant province before use, and confirm the current minimums/thresholds in force on the date of use — termination-clause case law in particular (Waksdale, Dufault, Chan and successors) changes year to year.
Fields that belong to a switched-off clause are dimmed — they are not asked for.
e.g. proof of legal right to work in Canada (SIN or valid work permit), reference checks
Strongly recommended: provide the full agreement with the offer, not after the start date, to avoid a "no consideration" challenge to its terms
