👍 Very cool to see the inside of this historical building. During the annual Doors Open Toronto, you can visit the old bank vault in the basement, go to the 15th floor boardroom, ride the elevators, etc. Beautiful Art Deco interior, lots of gold and marble utilised. Replica of the weather tower is in... People often mention building, Canada, great, Life,

    Very cool to see the inside of this historical building. During the annual Doors Open Toronto, you can visit the old bank vault in the basement, go to the 15th floor boardroom, ride the elevators, etc. Beautiful Art Deco interior, lots of gold and marble utilised. Replica of the weather tower is in the main lobby, all lit up & working.

    This's the building with the weather tower beacon sticking out on its rooftop. If you're in the area at night, look it up. The building is historic & with unique decorative all around the whole building. It also serves as several different government services agencies.

    I go here for court matters. Architecturally, this building is nice. The elevators look unique and luckily, the wait times aren't long. The washrooms are clean. The court areas are newly renovated. Overall, this place is a mix of old and new.

    Canada Life's service is absolutely disgusting. The first time I interacted with a Canada Life service representative I was scolded and given a lot of attitude on the phone. Canada Life managed to duplicate my new account with my old company's account because they hadn't closed the old one. Every time I submit a claim, it takes Canada Life an exact month to get this processed. I understand that things can get busy but the amount of time Canada Life takes for every single claim is way too long. Additionally, whenever I try to reach a customer service representative it takes at least 30-40 minutes to get an answer.

    During Doors Open Toronto you can go up to the board room on the 15th floor. It's a decent view but there is next to no information available on the building or what you can see from the windows. The basement vault was much more interesting. You can try and move the giant vault door and look inside the vault. There was a volunteer giving a small talk about the vault which was quite good.

    We did not go inside, but went to view the tower weather beacon on top of the building, which is connected to the meteorological system. A series of colour coded lights provide summarized weather forecasts at a glance. Fun to see!

    The building may be nice and historical. But the insurance is so bad. The call waiting time is longer than Trudeau's time in office.

    I had a great experience with Canada Life. I had a life insurance policy with great service provided by Joy Chung and David Drummond. The only reason why I left is because I live abroad now and found a policy here that suits my current situation. Highly recommend this service for great communication and transparency!

    Very retro and original outside and in the lobby, but the offices are modern.

    The office is great. I started my new year in their super fancy office. It’s a great place that represents heritage and pride. Great people and a great culture. A traditional organization with solid basics & background.
