If you missed the last one, now's your chance to get on board! 🎉
If one of the things that's holding you back from leaping into investing is the monotone vibe of it all, there's a free event taking over Toronto's Centre for Social Innovation that could change it all for you.
On the weekend of October 24-25, 2026, the popular space is hosting the Fidelity Investments Canada ETF Pop-Up: Dare to Dream to help you take the next steps into your financial future, whether you're a newbie or a seasoned pro.
And when you read the next part, you'll be like: "Wait, this is about investing?"

Fidelity Investments Canada is on a mission to prove that ETFs don't have to be boring. When you swing by the pop-up, you'll get to enjoy some yummy eats from some of your favourite local spots and handcrafted beverages.
There's a live DJ spinning tracks all day, a photo booth to snap your new profile pic, cool merch you'll actually wear, and an all-ages ball pit to put a smile on your face.
Interactive games put your strategy and know-how to the test, and when you need a break, there's the ETF and Chill Lounge: a low-key space where you can sit, charge your phone and grab some water.

And throughout it all, you'll be able to chat with Fidelity's ETF experts who can answer all your questions. The biggest takeaway from the event (yes, even after the snacks and merch) is that Fidelity has an ETF for everyone.
Fidelity wants to be your ETF BFF — a trusted pal you can turn to. Like a true BFF, they're there to hype you up, build your confidence and help you live your best life.

Canada's largest federal public service union says 120,000 workers will take part in nationwide strike votes starting next month after contract talks with the federal government broke down.
The Public Service Alliance of Canada says voting will take place from Nov. 16 to Jan. 22.
The union and Treasury Board have been in contract negotiations for a year and a half, and PSAC in May called a government wage offer of less than one per cent per year "insulting."
PSAC says the government has refused to negotiate on key issues such as wages, job security, remote work and protections against artificial intelligence.
Workers to take part in strike votes include wildland firefighters, passport and benefit officers, fishery officers, federal teachers, librarians and administrative staff.
In 2023, 155,000 federal public servants spent almost two weeks on picket lines across the country before winning wage increases amounting to 12.6 per cent over the agreement’s term, which ran from 2021 to 2024.

Air Canada says customers who book their flights by phone are now paying $30 per passenger for the privilege.
The country's biggest airline says the policy came into force last week, placing it alongside WestJet, United Airlines and the numerous low-cost carriers that charge phone booking fees.
The move marks an attempt to steer customers to its website or app and to cut call centre costs.
Andrew D'Amours, co-founder of flight deal site Flytrippers, says the change could disproportionately hit older Canadians who rely on phone bookings.
He says it highlights one more area that airlines have found to charge for services, and that now the cost will be borne more by those who use it.
Air Canada says customers who require specialized support, including those with accessibility needs, are exempt from the fee.
