Getting paid and staying compliant
Practical rules for affiliates based in Canada.
Affiliate income is generally business or self-employment income in Canada. GST/HST registration becomes mandatory above the small supplier threshold, so ask an accountant when it applies to you.
The Competition Bureau and Ad Standards expect clear disclosure when you earn from a link. Put a plain "affiliate link" or "ad" note before the first link.
Canada's anti-spam legislation (CASL) requires consent before you send commercial email, including affiliate newsletters.
PIPEDA applies to the personal data you collect, and Quebec has its own private-sector privacy law. Say what you collect and why.

Country questions
213 programs say they accept affiliates worldwide and 17 name Canada or its region. 182 do not publish a country list, so ask before you build content for them. Examples that name Canada: ESET, OnePlus, eBay Partner Network and DesignCrowd.
English reaches most of the country. French pages serve Quebec and face much less competition. Local programs and Canadian retailers often have separate French content.
None of the 230 open programs lists CAD payouts. Most pay in USD or EUR, so compare the net payout after conversion and the fees of your bank or payout service.
