TORONTO, Nov. 10, 2016 — Navigator Ltd. (‘Navigator’), Canada’s leading high-stakes public strategy and communications firm, today announced the opening of a new office in Montreal, Quebec. Building on recent growth, this new office and expanded team establishes Navigator as a truly national and fully bilingual Canadian advisory firm.

‘Our firm’s footprint in Canada is now truly national,’ said Jaime Watt, Executive Chairman of Navigator. ‘Navigator’s existing team of highly-skilled professionals will be joined by proven and fully-bilingual colleagues in Quebec, further enhancing our ability to meet clients’ needs and deliver results across Canada and in international markets.’

‘Navigator has long had a reputation for offering exceptional client-based advisory services when it matters most,’ said Gervais. ‘I’m not only looking forward to bringing Navigator’s distinct skill set to the Quebec marketplace, but also to providing new and expanded service offerings in a unique and oftentimes challenging political environment for Navigator’s existing and future clients.’ In addition to Montreal, Navigator has offices in Toronto, Edmonton, Calgary, Regina, Ottawa and London, UK.
