In 2023, grassroots initiatives successfully united our industry and won a much-needed delay on the rollout of Ontario’s recruiter licensing regime. Now, our focus is on empowering independent agencies to thrive.
The Recruitment Professionals Forum is dedicated to building meaningful connections in our industry and advocating for ourselves—for Bill 27 and beyond. Take advantage of exclusive events where we will bring the community together to help each other succeed and tackle emerging issues facing our profession.
But that’s not all: by joining us, you unlock access to expert content, networking opportunities and Q&A sessions. And best of all, everything is tailored to helping recruitment leaders scale and grow their careers and businesses.
A time to come together
The recruitment industry across Canada is facing some of its most intense regulatory, commercial, and professional pressures in recent memory. Whether you’re an individual, leader, or owner in a recruitment business, we can help each other navigate these complex challenges.
We’re here for the thousands of recruitment professionals, entrepreneurs, independent contractors, and other stakeholders who don’t have a seat at the table.

Amplify your voice
The Bill 27 campaign isn’t over yet. We’ve got to keep working to get policies like requiring all recruitment businesses to provide a $25,000 irrevocable letter of credit changed—not just delayed.
Our community brought major media attention to the critical flaws in Ontario’s licensing regime through interviews with outlets like The Globe & Mail and CTV News and meetings with key policymakers. And we’ll keep going until the licensing rules are fixed for good.
