In The Cards: How 417 Press Challenges the Whole Nice Canadians Stereotype


What It Is: A collection of smart and sassy greeting cards (and more) that tell it like it is from Montreal-based 417 Press. With funny messages for friends, lovers, and everything in between, the brand has been making waves as of late for some of their more unique offerings – like their collection of ‘Infertility Sucks‘ cards for friends struggling to make magic happen in their uterus. Not only that, they tackle surprisingly sensitive subjects (like miscarriage) in ways that will manage to put a smile on your recipient’s face, no matter how tough a time they’re going through. From cool Christmas cards that DGAF to funny ways to raise a toast to a loved one’s pregnancy, engagement, or what have you, there’s a fun, standout card for everyone at 417 Press.

Who It’s For: Your fellow sister-in-arms that’s trying to get prego. Your loves-a-laugh friend that’s celebrating something big. Your easy-to-blush auntie, for a scintillating shock on her birthday.

What It Costs: All cards seem to be $5 a pop – or 5 cards for $20 if you’re stocking up.

Where It’s At: Shop online here or check 417 Press’ Stockists.
