[INTERVIEW] ‎President of Marriott Canada – Don Cleary

Today, we feature Don Cleary of Marriott Hotels Canada. Last time, we did an audio interview with Vice President Global Loyalty Thom Kozik (Marriott) that you can find on YouTube.

This time around, I thought I’d go with a written interview instead. Due to a time sensitive schedule, I was unable to request questions from our readers. However, if you do have any questions, please let us know in the comment section and I will forward them directly to Marriott!

Top Credit Card Higher than Normal Sign Up Bonuses for March 2017

I decided to provide my list a few days earlier than normal (either 5th or 7th of the month) because the TD promotion is expiring on the 5th, so I thought I’d give a few more days heads up.

Keep in mind that the list I provide are offers that are higher than the normal sign up bonuses only. I will be coming out with other types of lists, like first year fee waived promotions, and maybe other lists recommended by my readers (please provide in the comment section below).
