Not sure what the equivalent of 1099 is in Canada, but alot of recruiters will offer both options with some kind of minimal increase for 1099(you pay taxes). You basically juts need to ask them. Also, In US you need to pay estimated quarterly taxes.

*Basically, the Canadian T4A and the U.S. Form 1099-MISC are equivalents, and are used for the same purpose when it comes to freelancers. While there are similarities and differences between the forms, they are irrelevant.
