Canada Company: Many Ways to Serve is a registered charity (#838516094RR0001)
that was first established in May 2006 with a pledge to stand
shoulder to shoulder with our troops for the sacrifices they make every day.
The organization has grown to over 160 members and has quickly established a reputation
among senior Canadian Military leaders, media and the business community as an enduring
bridge between Canada’s Armed Forces and the corporate world.
Canada Company focuses on making sure Canadians, who serve or wish to serve in the
Canadian Forces and Reserves, and their families receive the widest possible support,
recognition and care they deserve.
Canada Company is not a booster club, nor does it pick or take sides with whatever mission
a government decides is appropriate for the Canadian Forces and Reserves.
