Are You Hiring in Ontario? Navigating Bill 149 with Julie Alleyn
Description
Julie Alleyn spent 25 years moving through some of the most demanding industries in Canada — pharmaceuticals, law, broadcast media, engineering, and funeral services — before founding Pegasus Evolution, a bilingual fractional HR consulting and leadership coaching firm serving SMEs across Canada.
In this episode, Robin and Julie cover:
- What Bill 149 requires from Ontario employers as of January 1, 2026, including salary range disclosure, AI screening disclosure, speculative vacancy disclosure, and the 45-day candidate notification obligation
- The ban on requiring Canadian experience in job postings and what it means in practice
- What the HR Pulse Check diagnostic reveals that most business owners never expect to see
- Conversational Intelligence (C-IQ) and how the neuroscience of conversation shapes trust inside teams
- What bilingual HR looks like operating across provinces and what Quebec's Bill 96 means for Ontario-based businesses with francophone employees
- AI in HR workflows: where it helps, where it creates compliance risk, and what to watch
- Why the fractional model is accelerating and where professional services go from here
