Graphic design is unlicensed in Canada. Under Canadian copyright law the designer generally holds rights unless assigned — get a written assignment plus source files. Serving Quebec may add French-language expectations for the collateral itself.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a logo and a brand identity?
A logo is one mark; a brand identity is the whole system — logo variations, colour palette, typography, and usage guidelines that keep everything consistent. If you only ever need one graphic, buy a logo. If you'll produce ongoing materials, the identity package pays for itself by keeping every future asset on-brand.
How much does graphic design cost?
There are three tiers everywhere: crowdsourced/marketplace design at the low end, freelance designers in the middle, and studios/agencies at the top. Price tracks the deliverable, the designer's experience, and how many concepts and revision rounds you get — a $50 logo and a $2,000 logo are buying very different processes and rights.
What should a graphic design quote include?
An itemized quote lists: the specific deliverables and formats, number of initial concepts, revision rounds, copyright/source-file handover, and any stock-asset or font-licensing costs. Vague 'design work' quotes with one number are impossible to compare and hide scope disputes.
Should I hire a freelancer, an agency, or use a design marketplace?
Use a marketplace (Fiverr, 99designs) for a fast, cheap one-off where brand consistency doesn't matter much. Hire a freelancer for a defined project with a real conversation about your brand. Pay agency rates when you need strategy, multiple assets and accountability under one roof. Most small businesses start freelance and stay there.
Should I pay per project or per hour?
Fixed price for a defined deliverable (a logo, a brochure) protects both sides; hourly suits open-ended or ongoing work. Standard structure is a 30-50% deposit with the balance on delivery — never pay 100% up front for creative work you haven't seen.
Do I own the design and get the source files?
You should — insist the contract transfers copyright on final payment and that you receive the editable source files (AI, PSD, Figma), not just flattened JPEGs. Font licensing can be separate. Designer-retained source files are the most common lock-in trap: without them, every future edit routes back through the original designer.
How much does graphic design cost in Canada?
Freelancers typically charge CAD 35-130/hr, with logos commonly CAD 400-2,500 and brand-identity packages CAD 2,000-9,000+. Rates track close to US levels in Toronto and Vancouver.
