Autumn Reflections: Celebrating Progress and Planning Ahead

As autumn settles in, we’re reminded of the natural rhythms that shape both our lives and our finances. This time of year, rooted in harvest, Thanksgiving, and the anticipation of winter, invites us to pause, reflect, and prepare. At Synergy, we’re here to walk alongside you through every season.

Just as farmers gather the fruits of their labour, this season reminds us of the rewards that come from discipline and consistency. Every dollar you’ve set aside, whether in an RRSP, TFSA, or even a simple savings account, is worth celebrating. Progress, big or small, builds momentum. And if you’re only beginning your savings journey, that’s something to celebrate too. Think of your RRSP or TFSA as fertile ground—what you plant today has the potential to grow into tomorrow’s opportunities, like a new home, a child’s education, or a comfortable retirement.

Strengthening your financial foundation might mean topping up an emergency fund, paying down high-interest debt, or planning ahead for holiday spending and annual bills. The stronger the foundation, the more confident you’ll feel navigating whatever comes your way.

This fall, we’re excited to continue our Financial House framework designed to help you build long-term stability. Whether you’re laying your foundation or looking to strengthen it, we’ll walk you through setting priorities, creating achievable goals, and making confident decisions about saving, borrowing, and investing. Think of it as your personal blueprint for financial wellness, with our team ready to support you every step of the way.

This season also calls us to a spirit of gratitude. On behalf of all of us at Synergy, thank you for the trust you place in us. That trust inspires us to serve with care and integrity. We’re equally thankful for the chance to invest in our communities. From supporting non-profits and youth programs to offering financial literacy workshops and volunteering together, we’re proud to give back alongside you. Together, we’re helping build stronger, more vibrant communities.

As we navigate this season of change, let’s celebrate what we’ve achieved, prepare wisely for what’s ahead, and continue to support one another with gratitude and purpose.

Thank you for being part of our credit union family.

Warm regards,
Trevor Beaton
CEO, Synergy Credit Union

Member Relief Program

We have been here through good times and difficult times with our members for nearly 80 years.

We’re proud of the resiliency of our members and want to ensure they know we are here for them.

Whether it was the oil crash in the 1980s or the recessions in 2008, we have learned many things: one of which is there isn’t a cookie-cutter approach that we can take to meet our members’ diverse needs.

Recently, sustained hot weather and lack of precipitation is expected to have an impact on the bottom line of some of our agriculture members. We know this can be stressful as crops and pastureland in some areas are struggling.

We want you to know Synergy offers flexible options, including mortgage and loan payment relief, combined with tailored solutions in these circumstances.

Please contact us to discuss options, to ask us any questions, or to help you determine what may be best for you. You can give us a call at 1-866-825-3301 or 1-306-825-3301.

We're here to help.
