The Editors' Association of Canada (Editors Canada), or Association canadienne des réviseurs (Réviseurs Canada) in French, promotes professional editing as key in producing effective communication. The association has about 1,500 members,: 3 representing both salaried and freelance editors, who work with individuals and organizations in the corporate, technical, government, not-for-profit, and publishing sectors.
Six regional branches—British Columbia, Prairie Provinces, Saskatchewan, Toronto, National Capital Region, and Quebec/Atlantic Canada—provide a range of local programming and services. Several smaller branches, or 'twigs', also offer local services to members: Calgary, Kitchener-Waterloo-Guelph, Hamilton-Halton, Kingston, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland & Labrador.
Editors Canada sponsors professional development seminars, promotes and maintains high standards of editing and publishing in Canada, creates guidelines to help editors secure fair pay and good working conditions, helps both in-house and freelance editors to network, and cooperates with other publishing associations in areas of common concern.
The association is incorporated federally as a not-for-profit organization and is governed at the national level by an executive council.
