Michael Smith - IMPACT BRIDGE

@awallacemsc yes indeed!

Look who is achieving #Bcorp certification in our arena - congrats to all teams working towards #regenerative models, and measuring along the way. Right, @impactbridge? - AWIA team trbusiness.com/regional-news/…

@AndreaCBarrack We also need employee ownership trusts in Canada: employee-ownership.ca @jonrshell @SocialCP are leading the charge on this front federally though it can + should be supported at ON provincial level.

Great recognition of research and methodology that debunks pervasive myths used to resist raising the minimum wage. Older research but needed more than ever to stem #inequality and support essential workers. Plus he's born in my hometown. Double trouble.

The work's not over, but proposed White House Initiative on Inclusive Economic Growth is gaining steam. Read the full letter to President Biden bit.ly/2XHKvV0 cc @WhiteHouse @POTUS @VP

@BCorpCommunity @Maveron @Levitan @jstoffer @ntdillon @davewu @mpalazzi @bcorpuscan @KimCoupounas Thanks for your leadership and welcome to the B Corp community!

Today, only a handful of #VC firms & a small fraction of venture-backed companies are #BCorp certified. “Today, on the 23rd anniversary of our founding, we take a big step forward in announcing our certification as a B Corp.” Congrats to @Maveron! maveron.medium.com/maveron-become… @Levitan

@rstoddard @BCorpCommunity @mec @CMarquisCornell @the_logic @bcorpuscan @mpalazzi @lorna_davis10 @JudiRichardson @RetailCouncil @johnath @KimCoupounas Yes, the recommendation I had put forward was for MEC to become both a Certified B Corp + B.C Benefit Company (equivalent to public benefit corporations that exist in US states, Colombia and Italy)

@BCorpCommunity @mec @CMarquisCornell @the_logic @impactbridge @bcorpuscan @mpalazzi @lorna_davis10 @JudiRichardson @RetailCouncil @johnath @KimCoupounas They should also explore becoming a legal Public Benefit Corporation while they're at it, a new legal status enacted recently in #BritishColumbia.

Mountain Equipment Co-op @mec, Canada’s largest consumer co-operative with 5+ million members, is exploring the idea of becoming a #BCorp after its deal to hand over ownership to Kingswood Capital Management, LP, a U.S. #privateequity firm, came under fire leaderpost.com/news/the-rise-…

After nearly 50 years of campaigning for the environment, HRH The Prince of Wales (@ClarenceHouse) has today launched the #SMI's #TerraCarta as the basis of a recovery plan to 2030 that puts Nature, People and Planet at the heart of global value creation.

Canada’s C-suites may be ripe for the very kind of quotas Germany just imposed dlvr.it/Rn9jC5

When it comes to purpose, sharing is caring. Thanks @peterweeme!
