For the third year in a row, Report on Business magazine has joined with Jantzi Research Inc. to rank companies that operate in Canada on the basis of their corporate social responsibility performance. Jantzi is one of Canada's leading authorities on social investment and CSR issues. The firm also provides a full range of research and consulting services to institutional clients and financial professionals.

Some companies, such as Mountain Equipment Co-op, are included because of their reputation as CSR leaders.
