Our colleague networks

The Ethnicity Network (TEN) one of our longest standing networks, is focused on its mission to celebrate ethnic diversity, raise awareness, and create a safe place for ethnic minority colleagues at Canada Life. To achieve this TEN focuses on driving positive and impactful change by bringing together our ethnic minority colleagues and allies, in an open and inclusive environment.

We believe that our colleague networks can be powerful drivers of change, so we’re proud to be recognised as a Radius Certified Employee Network Investor. We work with Radius to invest in our Network members to unlock their full potential.

Our Balance network brings people together in conversations about gender and equality. This is an inclusive and supportive community who discuss topics of interest, while providing a platform to represent the voices and views of all genders. The network champions both professional and personal growth.

Proud is our LGBTQ+ network, bringing together LGBTQ+ colleagues and allies to celebrate authenticity and inclusion. We champion a culture where everyone feels confident to share their sexual orientation and gender identity. While wider society doesn’t always guarantee acceptance, and challenges still exist for the LGBTQ+ community, Proud is committed to creating a space where every employee can thrive as their true self, free from discrimination.

Supporting parents and caregivers, recognising and supporting every type of family set up, the Families network seeks to empower colleagues with resources, opportunities to learn and share experiences.

Our newest network focuses on both visible and non‑visible disabilities, including neurodiversity, providing a space where colleagues feel seen, supported and valued, and can contribute to our journey to become a truly disability‑inclusive firm.
