RIA AGA Canada Releases Prompt Pay Position Paper to Support Restoration Industry

Mount Laurel, NJ – The Restoration Industry Association (RIA) Advocacy and Government Affairs (AGA)
Canada is proud to announce the release of its first Prompt Pay Position Paper, a vital resource designed
to help restoration professionals navigate prompt payment legislation across Canada.
Prompt payment legislation has been enacted at the federal level and in Ontario, Saskatchewan, and
Alberta, with other provinces currently considering or advancing similar legislation. While the
fundamental concepts remain consistent across jurisdictions, variations exist in how the laws are
applied. Understanding these nuances is essential for restorers seeking fair and timely payment for their
services.

This position paper provides a comprehensive overview of prompt payment laws, their impact on
restoration businesses, and strategies for restorers to protect their financial interests. By equipping
contractors with the knowledge and resources needed to navigate these regulations, AGA Canada is
strengthening industry advocacy efforts and working toward a fairer business environment for
restoration professionals.

professionals. The RIA protects the interests of the industry by tackling shared challenges and providing
access to resources and opportunities to help restorers elevate their businesses. For more information,
