Canadian Tire (CT) is one of Canada’s oldest and largest retailers, operating in the automotive, hardware, sports, leisure, and houseware sectors. For almost a century, CT has proudly offered products and services to help Canadians with the jobs and joys of life in Canada. Our 500+ retail locations, financial services, exemplary e-commerce capabilities and one of Canada’s largest loyalty programs, Triangle Rewards, help keep Canadians on the move and on top of every season. The COVID-19 pandemic reinforced this purpose, as the retailer was heavily relied on to provide essential products and services to keep Canadians safe and healthy while they navigated the pandemic. In early 2020 CT launched a $5M COVID-19 Response Fund to be there for Canadians during the pandemic. This sentiment of being there for Canadians lived well into 2020 and became the main driver for creating an activation during the Christmas season.
