About Us
A Sign Of Trust Since 1918
On November 15, 1884, the Jewellers Security Alliance of Canada—the forerunner of the Canadian Jewellers Association (CJA)—was founded in Toronto. Due to risks in the business at that time, its primary purpose was to help jewellers strengthen their security methods and generally discourage jewellery store theft.

On November 15, 1884, the Jewellers Security Alliance of Canada—the forerunner of the Canadian Jewellers Association (CJA)—was founded in Toronto. Due to risks in the business at that time, its primary purpose was to help jewellers strengthen their security methods and generally discourage jewellery store theft. In addition, the alliance was focused on building: a more professional industry to serve customers; a better working relationship among all members of the jewellery industry; and better relationships with their partners in government.
Whether you’re hunting for gold or silver, diamonds or coloured gems, this is the first step on your journey toward selecting that perfect piece of jewellery to add to your collection.
Whether for everyday wear or a momentous occasion, jewellery often carries significant meaning, while also contributing to your individual style. Before purchasing a piece of fine jewellery, either for yourself or to give as a special gift, it is important to consider every aspect, so you can purchase with confidence and feel good about your choice.

Some moments are about business. Others are about the people who make our industry what it is.
As part of the Expo Prestige experience, we gathered at Terrasse Perché in Montréal for an evening of cocktails, conversations and connection — a celebration of the many talented people and profiles that make up our jewellery and watch community.
Sponsored by Citizen Canada, the evening was also a special opportunity to celebrate an incredible milestone: Citizen Eco-Drive: 50 Years of Innovation.
From longtime industry leaders to emerging voices, partners, friends and colleagues, it was a beautiful reminder that our industry is built on relationships, shared passion and the people behind every brand, business and story.
Here’s to 50 years of Citizen, and to the people who continue to shape what’s next.

Certains moments sont consacrés aux affaires. D’autres mettent à l’honneur les personnes qui font de notre secteur ce qu’il est.
Dans le cadre de l’Expo Prestige, nous nous sommes réunis à la Terrasse Perché à Montréal pour une soirée de cocktails, de discussions et d’échanges — une célébration des nombreux talents et profils qui composent notre communauté de la joaillerie et de l’horlogerie.
Parrainée par Citizen Canada, cette soirée a également été l’occasion unique de célébrer une étape marquante : Citizen Eco-Drive : 50 ans d’innovation.
Des leaders historiques du secteur aux nouvelles figures émergentes, en passant par nos partenaires, amis et collègues, cet événement nous a magnifiquement rappelé que notre secteur repose sur les relations, une passion commune et les personnes qui se cachent derrière chaque marque, chaque entreprise et chaque histoire.
Trinquons aux 50 ans de Citizen, et à toutes celles et ceux qui continuent de façonner l’avenir.
