The newest campaign from the Canadian Paralympic Committee is made for the Toronto 2015 Parapan Am Team. The committee showcases the excitement of Paralympic sports and the toughness of Canadian para-athletes through their stories.
Martin Richard, Executive Director of Communications and Marketing for the Canadian Paralympic Committee:
The campaign is a true reflection of our brand and the strong traits of world-class Paralympic athletes. We’re thrilled to share our athletes’ powerful stories and engage Canadians through a wide variety of media including television, radio, print, digital. Not only do you get to discover the toughness of our athletes on and off the playing field, but you can test your skills at one of our experiential activations across the GTA and share it on social media using #PARATOUGH.
The journey of Calgary para-cyclist Jaye Milley is told in the TV advert as seen above. The short film with the para-cyclist below is also part of the campaign.
Team Canada athletes are currently putting the final touches to their preparation for the Parapan Am Games set for Toronto from August 7-15, 2015
