Empowering Direct Selling in Canada Through Advocacy, Education, and Community
About us
Since 1954, the Direct Sellers Association of Canada has established and upheld rigorous standards, ethics and good business practices, as the recognized voice of our industry. We are a family of competitors using our combined strength to ensure fairness in regulations and gain credibility and respect with Canadians. As an industry that connects 1.3m Canadians to entrepreneurial opportunity and enrichment, we provide assurance of member company integrity and a foundation of trust for independent sales contractors (ISCs) and consumers. For a direct selling company looking to expand, Canada offers the ideal market: a stable economy, positive consumer acceptance of the channel, an entrenched direct selling market and a strong, well-established DSA. The DSA is devoted to preserving the integrity of the direct selling industry in Canada – whether working on behalf of member firms to address issues of importance, providing member companies and their ISCs with support educating the public on the benefits of direct selling, or ensuring consumer protection by enforcing the high standards set out in our Codes of Ethics and Business Practices.

🏛️ Easing the burden! Over many years, DSA Canada worked cooperatively with the Canada Revenue Agency to create legislation that limits the sales tax burden on direct sellers. This was a huge win for both the government and our industry! 💼 #DSACanada70 #TaxLegislation #IndustryAdvocacy #DSAAdvances

📜 A monumental achievement! In 1993, DSA Canada helped amend the pyramid selling provisions in the Competition Act, providing greater clarity and ensuring the industry’s integrity.

✨ Flashback to a Night of Excellence! On October 19, 2012, DSA Canada hosted its “Celebrating Excellence in Direct Selling” Gala, an unforgettable evening of recognition and celebration. Hosted by Kevin Frankish of City TV's Breakfast Television Toronto, the event brought together industry executives, independent sellers, and special guests, including Ed Holder, MP, Her Worship Hazel McCallion, and Joe Mariano, President of the US Direct Selling Association. One of the most memorable moments of the night was the presentation of the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medals to 35 exceptional individuals in direct selling. These prestigious medals were created to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's accession to the throne and are awarded to Canadians who have made significant contributions to their country and communities. 🏅 We were incredibly proud to honour these individuals for their outstanding achievements and dedication to the direct selling industry. Their contributions continue to inspire us as we carry forward DSA Canada’s mission of supporting direct sellers across the nation. #DSACanada70 #IndustryExcellence #QueenElizabethIIDiamondJubilee #CelebratingExcellence #DirectSellingSuccess #DSAHistory
