A financial empowerment campaign that made Canada’s most trusted news source feel personal, practical and urgent.
Rising costs, stagnant wages, and economic uncertainty have made money a constant worry for younger Canadians. The Globe had the insights to help but not the relevance to reach them.
So we launched a digital campaign built on a simple idea: the smartest investment you can make is in yourself.
We connected The Globe’s trusted insight to moments that matter, from job hunting to debt management to navigating housing.
