New Year, New Resolutions
With the new year comes New Year’s resolutions. Over a third of Canadians (37%) don’t plan on making any resolutions for 2018, but many are still up for the challenge, according to an Office Pulse survey of business professionals.
The top resolution this year? Health and fitness.

Canadians are not as likely as Americans to make a New Year’s resolution for 2018
While 65% of US workers say they intend to make a resolution this year, slightly fewer (63%) of Canadians intend to do so.
However, Canadians have more willpower when it comes to the length of their resolutions. In fact, 32% who say they’ll make a resolution intend to stick to it for the whole year.
