As the COVID-19 outbreak continues to make its way through the province, CANS staff will continue to work remotely this week. CANS offices in Sydney and Burnside will remain closed and in-person services suspended for the time being.
Safety is of the utmost importance to CANS. Our goal is to maintain a safe environment for both CANS staff, members and visitors to our office. We have been monitoring the outbreak for some time and have prepared as best we can to work remotely. That said, this global pandemic marks new territory for all of us. Please understand that there may be delays in CANS services during this time, but we are doing all that we can to keep any issues to a minimum.
How will this impact CANS Services?
During this time, CANS office — including access to CANS Business Centre — will remain closed to all CANS staff, members and guests. Please note that CANS staff WILL be working remotely and all digital services (ie: tender library) will remain active.
CANS Education courses planned for April are postponed until a later date. Registered learners will be contacted by CANS staff with next steps.
If you have any questions related to the affected courses, please contact:
Chantal Arsenault,
Manager, Education & Training Development
(902) 817-6246.
CANS printing services, Commissioner of Oaths Services, as well as CCDC & CCA Document sales remain suspended for the time being. We are currently looking at alternatives for our in-person services and will updating members as more information becomes available. New print orders made after Monday, March 16 at noon, will be printed pending the reopening of CANS offices.
For further questions or assistance, please contact:
Lesley Whynot,
Manager, Projects and Information Services
(902) 880-6046.
Where can I find updates as the situation progresses?
Our office will remain closed for the foreseeable future. We are continuously monitoring the situation and following recommendations from public officials. Any changes to this closure will communicated via CANS website and social media networks (Twitter & LinkedIn)
