Profiting the Crown
Author: Matthew J. Bellamy
Publisher: McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP
ISBN: 9780773528154
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Crown corporations are widely regarded as a Canadian invention. Since 1841 they have been dexterously implemented and hotly debated as instruments of public policy. However the failures of a number of state-run enterprises in the twentieth century have led a majority of Canadians to conclude that government has no place in the boardrooms of the nation. Matthew Bellamy's comprehensive account of Polymer's rise and evolution contradicts this widely held position and brings to light the accomplishments of one of Canada's pioneering crown corporations.
