The Associates is a Canadian television drama series that aired on CTV in 2001 and 2002.[1] Co-creators Greg Ball and Steve Blackman pitched and sold the show to CTV at Banff Television Festival in 1999.[2] The show features five junior associate lawyers at a Toronto law firm, played by Demore Barnes, Shaun Benson, Tamara Hickey, Gabriel Hogan and Jennie Raymond. R.H. Thomson also stars as the firm's senior partner.

The show was successful in its first two years of ratings, but due to tax cutbacks from the government, the show could not continue into a third season.
