Statistics Canada : Inter-corporate ownership, fourth quarter 2016

Released: 2017-01-19

The fourth quarter issue of Inter-corporate Ownership is now available.

This product is a directory of corporate ownership in Canada. It provides information on each individual corporation that is part of a group of commonly controlled corporations with combined assets exceeding $600 million or with combined revenue exceeding $200 million. Individual corporations with debt obligations or equity owing to non-residents exceeding a net book value of $1 million are covered as well.

Ultimate corporate control is determined through a careful study of holdings by corporations, the effects of options, insider holdings, convertible shares and interlocking directorships.

The information presented is based on non-confidential returns filed by Canadian corporations under the Corporations Returns Act and on research using public sources such as Internet websites. Entries for each corporation provide both the country of control and the country of residence.
