Our Work
Violence Against Women
Don’t Be That Guy
We developed a campaign about violence against women that turned heads. To help get the message right, we consulted with women’s groups, indigenous groups, community groups, student groups, organized labour, and academics. And we focus tested. The campaign received tremendous positive media coverage. Months after the ads stopped running, people are still talking about it. Our client is thrilled.
What we did: Research. Strategy. Branding. Television, radio, and social media advertising. Website.
Mental Health
Let’s Get It Right
Other jurisdictions told our client it took years and multiple attempts to achieve similar legislation.
What we did: Strategy. Branding. Television, radio, and social media ads. Website. Deck. Government relations.

More Than A Union
Our client is the largest and, historically, the most militant union in the province. We created an ongoing series of campaigns to create support for the public sector workers it represents. These campaigns have increased public support for our client’s members as well as member support for the union’s leadership and its goals.
What we did: Strategy. Branding. Television, radio, and social media ads.
Inshore Fishery
Choose Home
Our client represents inshore fish harvesters. It was in a battle to protect its members’ shrimp quotas. The Government of Canada was going to cut quotas. Inshore fish harvesters would bear 100% of the quota cuts and offshore harvesters 0%. Our client was up against a national organization representing offshore harvesters, which started its campaign well before we became involved. And they had more money. We beat them anyway.
Our campaign made community heroes of inshore fish harvesters. In the end, the federal government relented. It cut the offshore quota by 53%, and the inshore quota by just 39%.
