Frank and Gordon (Jules et Bertrand in francophone media) are fictional beavers that were the focal point of Bell Canada's brand and marketing strategy from 2005 to 2008. Originally introduced in late 2005 in Quebec, and February 2006 in the rest of Canada, to promote Bell's sponsorship of the 2010 Olympics, the anthropomorphic CGI beavers were voiced in English Canada by Norm Macdonald (Frank) and Ken Hudson Campbell (Gordon). Their misadventures with Frank getting flustered with the dimwitted Gordon made them two of the best known corporate mascots in Canada. The animated duo were created by Montreal-based Buzz Image for the Cossette advertising agency in Quebec City.

  • Jules et Bertand (Frank et Gordon pour le marché anglophone) sont des castors fictifs créés par images de synthèse et servant à promouvoir les produits et services de Bell Canada depuis 2005 jusqu'en 2008. Les deux castors ont commencé leur carrière à la fin de 2005 au Québec, et en février 2006 dans les autres provinces (aux Jeux olympiques d'hiver de 2006), dans le but de promouvoir la participation de Bell comme sponsor pour les Jeux olympiques d'hiver de 2010. Les castors sont doublés en canadien anglais par Norm Macdonald (Frank / Jules) et Ken Hudson Campbell (Gordon / Bertrand). Au Québec, le doublage est fait par Laurent Paquin (Bertrand) et Patrice Robitaille (Jules). Leurs mésaventures, avec Jules s'énervant contre un Bertrand benêt, ont fait d'eux les mascottes de marque d'entreprise les plus reconnues au Canada. Le groupe Buzz Image à Montréal a créé les castors rendus en 3D, tandis que Cossette de la ville du Québec s'est occupé de créer les messages publicitaires. (fr)
