The Land of the Maple Leaf has a very relaxed, yet progressive work culture. Employees are expected to be professional, hard-working and team-oriented. Multicultural respect and diversity are important for most Canadian workplaces, as is work/life balance. This makes Canada a great choice for your next remote hire.
English is the first language in Canada, so if you are a U.S. based company, language shouldn’t be a barrier. 23% of Canadians speak French, which is something to consider.
Shipping to Canada is straightforward and easy. Most major delivery companies such as UPS, FedEx and DHL offer service to Canada. So, after you hire an employee in Canada, there shouldn’t be too many additional hurdles to overcome to get their devices and equipment to them.

Of course, weight and package size are the biggest factors in any shipping cost. But, generally speaking, the price to ship a laptop, monitor or phone to Canada is around $50 - $60 by UPS Worldwide Expedited.
