This is promising. I hope we will see more employee-owned companies in Canada. On average, they are more successful, more resilient, and provide greater benefits to workers and the entire community.
@cafreeland's Fall Economic Statement marks a watershed moment for employee ownership in Canada. Starting in Jan 2024, a new made-in-Canada Employee Ownership Trust will help workers across the country build wealth and keep jobs in local communities.
