New Brunswick's Employment Standards Act (SNB 1982, c. E-7.2) covers employees but not independent contractors. The CRA's four-factor test applies federally to determine worker status, and New Brunswick courts follow the Sagaz framework. Misclassification can result in liability for CPP, EI, HST, and provincial payroll obligations. New Brunswick's WorkSafeNB also has its own analysis for workers' compensation purposes.
Fredericton, Moncton, and Saint John drive New Brunswick's freelance economy — from contract developers in the province's growing tech and cybersecurity sector to freelance translators serving the bilingual market, independent designers, and marine industry consultants. New Brunswick's bilingual status (English and French) creates unique demand for freelance translation and bilingual content services.
SignAI generates your New Brunswick freelance agreement with CRA-compliant classification language, scope of work provisions, payment terms in CAD with HST considerations, IP ownership under Canadian law, and New Brunswick-specific governing law clauses.

FAQ
Yes. Freelance agreements are enforceable contracts under New Brunswick law. With clear terms, mutual consideration, and signatures, New Brunswick courts will uphold them. SignAI's e-signatures are valid under New Brunswick's Electronic Transactions Act (SNB 2001, c. E-5.5) and federal PIPEDA guidelines.
New Brunswick courts follow the CRA's four-factor test and the Sagaz framework. Control, tools, profit opportunity, and risk of loss are the key factors. The actual working relationship is what courts examine — not just the contract language. A written agreement documenting the contractor's independence is critical supporting evidence.
New Brunswick is Canada's only officially bilingual province. While private contracts are not required to be bilingual, offering agreements in both English and French is good practice when working with francophone freelancers or clients. SignAI can generate agreements in the language you specify.
New Brunswick's HST rate is 15% (5% federal + 10% provincial). If a freelancer's annual revenue exceeds $30,000, they must register for HST and charge it on invoices. Your agreement should specify whether quoted rates include or exclude HST.
Under Canada's Copyright Act, the freelancer owns copyright in their work unless a written agreement assigns those rights. New Brunswick follows federal copyright law. Include explicit IP assignment or licensing terms in your agreement.
