Our members consist of the finest specialists in the industry, bound by our strict code of ethics and abiding by our professional oversight, discipline and governance.

The AAPI was incorporated in 1996, as a non-profit Association, dedicated to representing our members and promoting the professional investigation industry. The executive interacts with Government and legislators on a National and Provincial level, particularly the Justice and Solicitor General departments, which regulate and license all our members. A founding member of the Canadian Association of Professional Investigators (CAPI) and affiliated with the premier associations worldwide, our members have national and international experience and expertise to assist our clients, within the Government, Corporate, Insurance and Legal industries.

We strongly recommend that anyone thinking of hiring a Private Investigator follow these steps:
