Project Overview
This
Web portal provides selected resources associated with an ongoing research
project that examines the historical development of Canadian media companies.
The project addresses five major questions: 1) What
role have the structure and performance of the Canadian, U.S., and
international media markets played in the companies' development and
activities? 2) What role have domestic and foreign regulatory policies as well
as subsidy programs played in shaping the development of the companies? 3) What
role have entrepreneurial skills played in shaping the development of the
companies? 4) How successful have the companies been in the emerging global
media marketplace? and finally, 5) What, if any,
lessons can be drawn from the companies' experiences in the Canadian, U.S., and
international media markets?
The
project initially focused upon media corporations based in Toronto, Ontario; specifically, Alliance Atlantis Communications and its
predecessor companies. However, it has since expanded to include companies
throughout Canada.
