Yes. The US Eastern shift covers Ontario, Quebec and the Atlantic provinces in their business hours, and the Pacific shift covers British Columbia; Alberta and the Prairies fall between them. The coverage clock on this page shows what is staffed right now in your zone. ### Can the assistant answer in French? Bilingual French and English answering is available on request and confirmed at the match stage rather than promised on a web page. Tell us on the staffing plan form and we say plainly whether we can staff it for your hours. ### How do you handle CASL? Every commercial electronic message needs express or implied consent under CASL, so campaigns run only from lists with recorded consent, with identification and unsubscribe in every message. Outbound calls follow the CRTC Unsolicited Telecommunications Rules and the National DNCL, with lawful consent and do-not-call scrubbing. ### What about PIPEDA and Quebec Law 25? A data processing agreement covers PIPEDA obligations and, for Quebec clients, Law 25 requirements including the person in charge of protecting personal information and cross-border assessment notes. The security page lists the controls. ### How do Canadian rates compare? Canada-based virtual assistants publish C$25 to C$60 an hour, Toronto and Vancouver executive assistants up to C$75, and managed offshore plans US$699 to US$899 a month (Virtual Gurus, VantaStaff, 2026). We do not publish a rate card. Plans depend on hours, desks and coverage. Get a staffing plan within 1 business day. Next step ## Your desk, staffed. Wherever you are. Tell us what is overloaded.
