Sole proprietorship with 1 year IEC visa?
If granted my IEC I'm hoping to find work on a freelance/contract basis while in Canada. From what I can tell, this kind of thing would normally be done under a sole proprietorship.
Does anyone know if I'm allowed to set up a sole proprietorship for the extent of my IEC visa?

Perfect, thanks. Tax and licensing etc. seems pretty similar to being self-employed/sole trader in the UK or Australia, which I've done before. Just wasn't sure if I was permitted to set it up under IEC.

If you permit allows you to work and has no conditions, cannot see where the problem would be.
