Description
Founded in 1844, The Globe and Mail is one of Canada's most respected journalistic institutions—the country's newspaper of record. But as audiences migrate to fragmented digital platforms and trust in media continues to erode, the 180-year-old brand faces a defining challenge: how do you connect with a new generation of readers without compromising the values that built its reputation?
The answer was hiding in plain sight. We turned the paper's most recognizable asset into the message. By changing just two words, we transformed a static masthead into a dynamic storytelling platform, capable of speaking to every issue that shapes Canada: business, politics, culture, sport and national identity. The result was a simple, infinitely adaptable campaign that proved The Globe and Mail doesn't just report what shapes the world, it reflects what shapes yours.
This professional campaign titled 'What Shapes Your World?' was published in Canada in July, 2026. It was created for the brand: The Globe and Mail, by ad agency: VML Canada. This 360° medium campaign is related to the Media industry and contains 3 media assets. It was submitted 25 minutes ago.
