Canaccord Founder Peter Brown’s Farewell Remarks to Staff

Ceo.ca, July 7, 2014
I will never forget the army of colleagues and friends who played a significant role and face us their best 10, 20, 30 or 40 (Ken McPherson 41) years assisting us in this endeavour. Some are still with the Firm, some moved on and some of the tasks became redundant in a fast changing business — but all will be remembered by me with the dignity, respect and affection they earned as we shared some great victories together. I sincerely hope they all realize the importance of their contribution to building the base for the very dynamic global opportunity that followed in Paul Reynold’s seven year tenure as CEO.

As I have said as Founder (which is forever) I feel fortunate to have had a great corporate experience with a team, who for the most part, have become great friends.
