In recent years, the topic of diversity has taken center stage as societies around the globe develop greater tolerance, compassion and empathy for the differences that exist around us.

As Canadian businesses continue to adjust and adapt, many are still struggling with the continuing complications of the COVID-19 virus and what it means for operations.

Following a year of great changes, we reflect on the positive outcome 2020 had on the workplace. Siobhan Byron, SVP of TEMS & Tracy Binns, Principal Human Resources discuss the impact the year had on both employers and employees, with both groups relying on technology to bridge gaps and reveal new opportunities.

As we head toward the start of a new year and we continue to deal with the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, reducing costs and increasing efficiency continue to be top priorities for lenders and brokers.

Canadian consumers are willing to make the leap and buy a home, but many are unsure about the process required to obtain a mortgage. The industry needs to evolve to support homebuyers as they navigate this very complex transaction.
