Canada-specific requirements to plan for

Projects for businesses in Calgary have to work for local customers and local rules. These points are planned from the first milestone:

PIPEDA (federal) plus Québec’s Law 25: CASL requires express consent before sending commercial emails or SMS.
Québec requires French-language versions for consumer-facing content (Bill 96).
Ontario’s AODA sets web-accessibility duties for many organisations.
The full list for Canada is on the Website Designer & Developer in Canada page.

Working hours: India ↔ Calgary

Calgary is on UTC−7 / UTC−6 (seasonal). IST is 11 h 30 min – 12 h 30 min ahead. There is little natural overlap, so a fixed call slot is agreed and work continues while you are offline. A daily call at 08:00–10:30 your time (20:30–23:00 IST) works year-round. Between calls you get written updates and a staging link that shows the latest build.

Decisions to make before work starts

Agree page templates, editor roles, responsive layouts and integrations. A migration also needs a URL inventory and redirect plan for pages that move.

Third-party API, CRM, and analytics integrations
