Hi all,
Does anyone know whether it is possible to be considered self-employed when
working through an agency/recruiter in Canada? I currently have a GST
business number through Revenue Canada, but a "friend of a friend" told me I
will need to register for either a "sole proprietorship" or "partnership"
with the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations.
