The aim of the agreement is to ensure effective reciprocity in order to ensure equitable, balanced and sustainable labour mobility in the landscape architecture profession at the national level. In essence, the agreement aims to reconcile labour mobility, professional standards and local knowledge between the different types of legal systems in Canada: regulated and unregulated. July 9, 2020 – Nine provincial, regional and territorial landscape architecture associations have signed an agreement to define the conditions under which a landscape architect who is a full member of a Canadian jurisdiction (regulated or unregulated) can recognize his or her professional membership in another Canadian jurisdiction (regulated or unregulated). In 1979, the Board of Directors of the CSLA approved a motion that promoted reciprocity among provincial federations and established a committee that should examine the issue in greater depth. Since then, the CSLA Board of Directors has worked with several committees, working groups and working groups to achieve their goal of agreement among component associations. An agreement was signed in 2013, including eight of the nine federations. These include the revision of the accession criteria, the definition of common standards and negotiations with up to ten regional federations at the same time. Finally, in 2010, a group of volunteers developed an agreement that was refined over the next three years. In July 2013, eight out of nine regional, regional and territorial landscape architecture associations signed the rezipaton agreement at the CSLA congress in Regina.

The updated agreement was signed by the nine associations in July 2020: the Coordination Group for Worker Mobility came into force in 2009, in accordance with Chapter 7 of the Internal Trade Agreement (now Canada`s Free Trade Agreement). In June 2013, AALA, BCSLA and OALA signed the Collaborative Memorandum of Understanding on Professional Reciprocity to reaffirm our commitment to recognizing Canada for its national reciprocity of the landscape architecture profession. The Workforce Mobility Coordination Group reviewed the letter or intent and believes that landscape architects have made excellent progress in implementing labour mobility commitments. In Canada, the landscape architecture profession is regulated in Alberta, Ontario and British Columbia. Since 1995, the Ontario Association of Agricultural Architects (OALA) and BCSLA have entered into a reciprocity agreement guaranteeing simple mobility for landscape architects between Ontario and British Columbia. Applicants for membership who emigrate from an unregulated province or outside Canada will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. BCSLA is working with OALA and the Alberta Association of Landscape Architects to harmonize membership categories and access standards to create a labour mobility model across Canada, even if the profession is not regulated. On July 9, 2020, nine provincial, regional and territorial landscape architecture associations signed an agreement establishing the conditions under which a full member landscape architect of a Canadian jurisdiction (regulated or unregulated) can recognize professional membership in another Canadian jurisdiction (regulated or unregulated).
