352,000 Babies per Year

Reason #1:

Help kids finish investing for retirement by
their 3rd birthday

Every year, about 352,000 babies are born in Canada. Our goal is to help each one finish investing for retirement by their 3rd birthday — when it costs 96% less — so they’ll never need to invest their own earnings.

This will ensure that they:

retire comfortably — with plenty of money to last their entire life; and

enjoy a higher standard of living during their 'working years' (as a result of not having to set aside any of their earnings for retirement).

To achieve this goal, we're organizing the BIGShift's deployment across 3,960 geographically-defined 'neighbourhoods' throughout Canada.

Accordingly, our goal is to help an average of 89 babies per neighbourhood, each year.

How Accelerators Help Make It Happen:

As an Accelerator, your one-time payment of $3,319 (plus HST) has an immediate and powerful impact on new families. Here’s exactly what your support accomplishes:

A Powerful Head Start:

We deposit $500 of your payment directly into a child's retirement account. Invested before their first birthday, this single deposit is projected to grow to over $130,000 by retirement thanks to compound growth.

Launch of Zero-Fee Funds:

Your contribution builds and sustains Canada's first zero-fee fund for kids, dedicating every dollar to their growth. This is critical: a modest 0.4% fee can cost a child over $2 million in lost retirement savings over a lifetime.

Personalized Parent Coaching:

Your support unlocks free, one-on-one coaching for new and expecting parents. We provide tailored guidance to help them navigate every step of the BIGShift, empowering them to build a secure financial future for their family.

Creation of Parent-Friendly Jobs:

The BIGShift is about action. We use these funds to create and source lucrative, flexible part-time work for parents, helping them earn the extra capital needed to secure their child's financial independence.

BIGShift Media (BSM) will provide the first 43,954 of these part-time parent jobs. BSM's first mandate is to complete the Accelerator Drive and BIGShift Membership Drive. Together, these Drives will create widespread awareness of the BIGShift's many societal-level benefits.

Other Part-time Parent Jobs: To help even more parents earn extra part-time income, BIGShift Canada will also operate a small number of other businesses itself. And, it will source flexible, well-paid jobs from other employers.

AI-assisted: To enable parents to earn more in fewer hours, many of the part-time parent jobs will be AI-assisted.

BIGShift Rewards Ecosystem:

To help every child finish their retirement investing by age 3, we need to build a nationwide movement. Your contribution as an Accelerator builds the engine to attract that movement: the BIGShift Rewards App. This app is designed to bring hundreds of thousands of Canadians to the mission by offering compelling incentives. Supporters will be drawn in by two main rewards:

Free Product and Service Rewards: A marketplace where they can redeem rewards for products and services from thousands of Canadian businesses, at no cost.

Zero-Fee Rewards: An exclusive opportunity to invest a portion of their own money into the same zero-fee funds built for children.

By creating this powerful ecosystem, we build a massive, engaged community that ensures every child gets the widespread support they need.

Policy Changes: Finally, your support empowers us to advocate for permanent, structural change. We will lobby the Federal Government to implement two critical policies:

Automate Savings: Automatically open a registered retirement account for every Canadian child at birth.

Incentivize Investment: Make all income earned by parents for their child's retirement completely tax-free and exempt from EI/CPP deductions.

Reason #4:

Zero-Fee Fund Access

Your Zero-Fee Access

Invest up to $400,000 of your own portfolio into our exclusive zero-fee funds.

Paying zero fees isn't just for babies. As an Accelerator, you'll have the option to invest up to $400,000 of your own portfolio into the same zero-fee funds we're opening for children.

You can transfer funds in flexible increments that suit you, up to your cumulative maximum.

Here’s how eliminating fees creates a powerful financial impact across the two key periods of your financial life.

Impact Before Age 66: Accumulating More Savings

During your working years, eliminating investment fees has a dramatic effect on your portfolio's growth, allowing you to build a significantly larger nest egg.

Example: A 40-Year-Old with a $400,000 Portfolio

Zero-Fee Anchor

With no fees (9% growth): Grows to $3,759,680 by age 65.

With 0.40% in fees (8.6% growth): Grows to $3,402,240 by age 65.

The difference:
an extra $357,440 in retirement savings.

Impact After Age 66: Enjoying Higher Retirement Income

In retirement, you'll enjoy more income each year as your larger nest egg continues to grow completely fee-free.

Example: The Same 40-Year-Old's Retirement

That extra savings (with zero-fees) can generate an additional $46,000 in income per year.

Over the course of their retirement (e.g., to age 89), this can total more than an extra $1,100,000 in income.

(Your exact results will depend on your age, account size, and how long you live — but the principle is the same: zero fees means dramatically more for you.)

Allocate to Your Team

Use your $400,000 zero-fee allocation however you choose — split it among your partners and staff, or keep it for yourself.

It can be a powerful tax-free benefit to help you recruit and retain top talent.

A Richer Retirement

Enjoy $46,000
more per year
in retirement.

Throughout retirement, that can add up to an extra $1,100,000.

*Based on the 40-year-old example on the left.

Use your $400,000 allocation to reward your top people.

Reason #5:

Benefit All Canadians

This is your chance to be part of a movement that transforms Canada’s financial future. As an Accelerator, you help solve our greatest financial challenge and unlock prosperity for generations to come.

Solve Canada's Greatest Financial Challenge

Canada’s $1.2 trillion debt drains tens of billions annually in interest — money that could be used to build a stronger nation.

For decades, governments have failed to present a real plan to solve this crisis.

Becoming an Accelerator is part of the first real plan to fix the problem permanently. By helping every child become financially independent, we eliminate the future need for government retirement assistance (the government's largest expenditure). This will allow the federal government to:

Pay off our National Debt and end the crushing interest burden.

Permanently lower everyone's taxes.

End CPP deductions from paycheques.

Phase out employer CPP contributions, freeing up capital for businesses to grow.

Build a Stronger, Richer Economy

With retirement savings secured at birth, BIGShift kids will have thousands more dollars of disposable income each year. This surge in spending power fuels Canada’s economy, creating jobs and driving growth through a powerful multiplier effect.

A second powerful boost comes from helping millions of Canadians invest fee-free. Accelerators make it possible for BIGShift to launch Zero-Fee Investment Funds, allowing Canadians to keep thousands of dollars per family more in their accounts, dramatically boosting long-term wealth.

Create an Intergenerational Legacy

The ultimate goal of the BIGShift is to create a new financial foundation for every Canadian child, ensuring prosperity is a birthright, not a struggle.

Once the national debt is gone, the federal government can expand the BIGShift principle, making three at-birth investments for every baby:

Retirement: Fully fund their retirement account at birth.

Education: Invest enough to cover post-secondary costs.

Home: Invest enough for a first-home down payment.

Canada could eliminate the biggest financial burdens families face — and do so for about half the cost of what the government currently spends just to support retirees.

Join a Newsworthy

National Movement

The BIGShift isn't just a financial program — it's a national story in the making.

When businesses, parents, and communities come together to secure every child's future, boost the economy, and enable the government to pay off the national debt, it's newsworthy.

This free publicity will accelerate public awareness and benefit business and professional Accelerators by putting them in front of more people, at no extra cost.

Bottom Line

When you become an Accelerator, you're not just helping your business. You are helping to solve Canada's most pressing financial challenge, strengthening the economy, and creating lasting prosperity for generations to come.

A Debt-Free Future

Be part of the plan to eliminate Canada's national debt and permanently lower taxes for everyone.

A Stronger, Richer Economy

By increasing spending power and enabling fee-free investing, Accelerators help create jobs and build wealth for millions.

An Intergenerational Legacy

Create a new foundation where prosperity is a birthright, with
3 key life costs (retirement, education, housing) funded at birth.

A Newsworthy Movement

Be part of a national story that will attract widespread media coverage, putting a spotlight on you and your business.
