For income tax purposes, the Canadian federal government uses a set of Industry Codes to categorize all jobs.
Not sure if this means anything but the government puts “Photography” in the same category as “Janitorial Services” and “Miscellaneous Building or Dwelling Services”.
Apparently, the job of photography is not considered a “profession” like that of ”Online Advice”; not a “business service” like that of “Chimney Cleaner”; and not even similar to the jobs of “Authors” or “Artists”.
However, it’s nice to see that the government is keeping up with the times. It has new industry codes for the jobs of “Online Escorts” and “Online Psychic”.
