John Adams, CEO of Primerica Canada said, “While we are excited to achieve the milestone of 10,000 representatives in Canada, the most important thing is that by expanding our sales force, we can serve even more middle-income families across the country.

We do this one-on-one with our clients and take an educational approach to help them improve their financial futures.”
