Discovery and Jeep Partner on Unique Digital Series

Discovery and Jeep invite viewers to buckle up and enjoy the ride of a lifetime across some of Canada's most pictureque landscapes, pristine wilderness, and rugged outback in an all-new digital series Life is Calling, starting Monday, July 20 on Discovery.ca. In the exclusive eight-episode series, hosts Roberto and Bella invite viewers to explore historic, and adventurous destinations - a wonderland of scenic gems tucked away in the far corners of Canada. The popular and energetic duo, known for their pioneering forays across far-flung destinations - are the perfect chaperones on this immersive and engaging road trip off the beaten path. Life is Calling is accompanied by an interactive and immersive digital-exclusive experience at discovery.ca/LifeIsCalling in English Canada, and LaVieVousAppelle.ca in French Canada.

Along for the ride through the great Canadian outdoors is Jeep Canada, Discovery's exclusive  partner in the development of this unique series. The journey across some of Canada's most surprising back roads and remote trails is made possible by the superior off-road handling of Roberto and Bella's Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Renegade. Capturing unsurpassed views, the expert tour guides confidently navigate the breathtaking Canadian outdoors, connecting with local experts to capture added context in each location. Life is Calling delivers the adrenaline punch of a cross-country drive along with beautifully cinematic images and landscapes, presenting an up-close and personal look at Canada that evokes the spirit of a documentary short film.

"I could not think of a more perfect partner than the Jeep brand for this unique interactive series," said Paul Lewis, President and General Manager, Discovery. This is a series inviting Canadians to experience the open road, pioneering our great outdoors, and navigating tough terrain with grit and confidence - the very essence of what the Jeep brand embodies. We look forward to joining Roberto and Bella as we embark on this amazing Canadian journey."

"Jeep is delighted to partner with Discovery in escorting not only Roberto and Bella to some of Canada's most gorgeous destinations, but to invite Canadians along for a first-hand view of their road trip," said Ed Broadbear, Vice President, Marketing, Jeep Canada. "Canada is ripe for exploration, and the Jeep brand's legendary capability, dynamic on-road driving experience, and off-road agility are the perfect vehicles to fully experience the journeys."

Life is Calling broadcast and digital promotion will run in English and French language markets across Bell Media properties. Throughout the promotional flight, weekly episodic teaser spots will drive viewers to discovery.ca/LifeIsCalling and LaVieVousAppelle.ca.

To further complement the episodic series, Jeep Canada is offering viewers the ability to enter for a chance to win either a 2015 Jeep Cherokee or all-new Jeep Renegade as well as great weekly prizes on jeep.ca/LifeIsCalling or jeep.ca/LaVieVousAppelle.ca.
