25 years of entrepreneurial revolution

I'm working on a story about the growth of entrepreneurship in Canada over the past 25 years.

As part of the festivities surrounding PROFIT Magazine’s upcoming 25th anniversary, we’re trying to trace the “great moments in small business growth” over the past 25 years and measure the impact of entrepreneurship on Canadian society.

I’m particularly interested in stories from individual Canadian entrepreneurs. What made you become an entrepreneur? Who were your inspirations or role models? What technological, culutural or economic forces do you think have most influenced the growth of entreprenurship in Canada?

Do you consider Canada today an especially entrepreneurial culture? How could we improve? And are we doing enough now to build a more entrepreneurial society tomorrow?

Or should we all go back to working at the Post Office?

If you have any stories or opinions to share, please email me. rick (at) rickspence.ca
