    The Canadian Hospitality Landscape

    Canada's food service industry generates over $100 billion annually, but faces severe challenges: labor shortages, high turnover (75%+ in some provinces), seasonal fluctuations, and province-specific compliance requirements. Training is the key lever operators can pull to address all of these.


    Province-Specific Compliance

    Every Canadian province has different requirements. Garnysh helps navigate this complexity:

    Ontario — Food Handler Certification, WHMIS, AODA
    British Columbia — FOODSAFE certification, WorkSafeBC compliance
    Alberta — Food Handler Training, OHS Act requirements
    Quebec — MAPAQ hygiene and food safety standards
    Atlantic provinces — Regional health authority requirements
