Digital Archives - Canadian Enterprises Gallery

The Canadian Enterprises Gallery states "The heritage of Canada as a nation is inextricably interwoven with the growth and development of a diverse spectrum of Canadian enterprises. From the small family business to the large multi-national corporation, Canada has largely been built on the foundations laid by a broad range of private as well as public institutions." A 2001 posting notes "One of the leading and largest professional accounting bodies in the world, the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA, as it is more commonly known) received its federal charter in 1902. Since then, it has been the pre-eminent accounting organization in Canada and has kept pace with the growth of Canada's economy. The mission of CICA is to serve the interests of society and the CA profession by providing leadership to uphold the professional integrity, standards and pre-eminence of Canada's Chartered Accountants, nationally and internationally."
