Welcome to
Havas Canada
We are a home for collaborators. At a time when the industry has fragmented across specialities and disciplines, we're proud to be truly integrated - physically and philosophically.

We are drawing on talent and thinking which is changing behaviour – and using the creative ideation and capabilities of our Vivendi partnership. A partnership which has grown at pace delivering new initiatives to make better, more innovative marketing solutions for our clients.

Our proprietary research study Meaningful Brands (that spans 350,000 people worldwide, 31 markets, 22 industries and 1,800 brands each year) discovered that:
of brands could disappear and no one would care
of consumers think companies and brands should communicate honestly about their commitments and promises
of the content provided by brands is not meaningful to consumers
It’s these key findings that have lead to the creation of our Meaningful Brands strategic framework. A unique approach that has allowed us to understand that a brand’s value – how meaningful it is to its consumers - is defined by a combination of ‘functional’, ‘personal’ and ‘collective’ benefits.
Used across strategy and planning teams in all our agencies around the world, Meaningful Brands acts as the ‘glue’ in our integrated process and provides a common approach to strategic thinking to ensure we deliver meaningful business growth for our clients.
