Canadian Coalition for Good Governance recognizes Canada's leaders in corporate disclosure


Introducing the Golden Gavel Award for Director Disclosure

Shareholders are finding out more about the directors of the companies they own, according to the Canadian Coalition for Good Governance. To recognize the leaders in this new era of corporate disclosure the Coalition introduced its first award, the Golden Gavel.
