How do I find company information?
It's typically easier to find large, public companies from Canada or the US.
It can be difficult to find information on small, private companies. Private companies are not required to report financial and company information to the public.
Company websites can be a great source of information. Keep in mind though that this can often represent a biased perspective. It is highly advisable that using a company’s website be supplemented with other outside sources.
