Canada’s meeting place for freelance writers and creators

Established 2010

Join the Canadian Freelance Guild for the first CFG Experts Panel of 2024 and discover how you can navigate the government contracting system to your advantage.

After all, it's the biggest purchaser of private sector goods and services in the country.

We've confirmed two expert CFG panelists who know how to find and get Government of Canada contracts, and a representative from Procurement Canada.

This is bound to be a popular event just two months from the government's annual year end, when budgets are either spent or returned to the Treasury.

Find out how the system works, how to make it work for you, and whether this is the kind of client you really want.

This webinar is part of the Canadian Freelance Guild's Business of Freelancing series.
