Montreal ecosystem context

Montreal is Canada’s second-largest tech hub, with deep AI research (MILA, Element AI alumni, Cohere’s research roots) and a robust gaming and creative-tech sector. It’s also the only major Canadian market under Quebec Law 25, which carries fines up to $25M CAD or 4% of global revenue.

We deliver bilingually where required, and we know Law 25 inside and out: data portability windows, Section 12.1 automated-decision disclosure, breach-notification expectations from the CAI. Toronto firms that handwave Quebec compliance are why this gap exists.
