Membership

We believe in collaboration over competition, uniting the brightest strategic and creative minds.

Let’s be real—being independent doesn’t mean you signed up to figure everything out from scratch. That’s where tCAN comes in: a network of agency owners who believe swapping lessons is way better than learning them the hard way (again).

Here, you’ll find candid advice, clever workarounds, and more than a few “wow, I wish I’d known that sooner” moments. Whether you’re navigating client curveballs or plotting your next big move, someone in tCAN has been there—and probably has a deck and a meme about it.

This isn’t just professional small talk. It’s real help, real relationships, and a whole lot of collective brainpower you can actually use. Plus, we’ve been told our members have excellent taste in snacks and kind hearted sarcasm.

2027 Annual Conference

June, 2027 | Hosted by La Bande

Join us in Montréal for the 2027 tCAN Members’ Conference! Celebrated for its creative energy, rich diversity, epicurean culture, and effortless blend of European charm with year-round festival energy, Montréal is the perfect backdrop to connect with leading agencies across Canada.

As one of tCAN’s signature annual events, the conference brings together industry leaders from coast to coast to exchange ideas, share best practices, and explore the trends shaping our industry. Between meaningful conversations and Montréal’s unmistakable joie de vivre, with its creative neighbourhoods, vibrant arts scene, and café culture, this is where fresh perspectives take shape.
