Welcome

Hi! I’m a Canadian business professor with a long-standing interest in Canadian business history, entrepreneurship, corporate governance, capital markets, and the people and institutions that have shaped Canada’s commercial development.

I have been a longtime reader of Wikipedia, and as I approach retirement I’m hoping to contribute more actively to the project. My main interest is improving articles related to Canadian companies, business leaders, industries, financial institutions, and historically important developments in Canadian commerce.

I’m still learning the editing process, so I welcome advice, suggestions, and corrections from experienced editors.

Areas of interest

Canadian business history
Entrepreneurship
Corporate governance
Family businesses
Banking and finance in Canada
Canadian capital markets
Industrial development
Business education
Economic history
Biographies of notable Canadian business figures

Editing goals

Improve sourcing on Canadian business articles
Add historical context where appropriate
Help make business-related articles clearer and more balanced
Expand underdeveloped articles about Canadian industries
Learn Wikipedia’s editing standards and best practices
Contribute carefully, patiently, and constructively

More about my interests

I’m especially interested in how businesses grow, how industries evolve, and how individual entrepreneurs, executives, investors, educators, and institutions contribute to the broader Canadian economy.

I enjoy reading well-sourced articles that place business activity in a broader historical, social, and economic context. I hope to help improve articles in that same spirit.

Articles and topics I may explore

This is a personal working list of topic areas I may read about or help improve over time:

Canadian banks and financial institutions
Historic Canadian companies
Business schools and business education in Canada
Canadian entrepreneurs and executives
Regional business history
Trade, industry, and commerce in Canada
Notable mergers, acquisitions, and corporate milestones

Topic	Why it interests me
Canadian business history	It helps explain how the country’s economy and institutions developed over time.
Entrepreneurship	Founder-led companies often reveal important patterns in innovation, risk, and growth.
Corporate governance	Governance shapes how organizations make decisions and maintain accountability.
Capital markets	Financial markets play a central role in business development and economic expansion.

Thanks for visiting my user page. I’m new to editing and grateful for any guidance from experienced Wikipedians.
