Abstract

Former Americans have always played a significant part in Canadian business life and have at times seemed conspicuous among the Canadian business elite. There are indications, though, that their profile is lowering as native Canadians assume more and more managerial and proprietary roles, roles involving the innovative and entrepreneurial skills once thought to be un-Canadian. "Branch plant" operations are also less likely to be managed by Americans resident in Canada—a trend parallel to but not usually contiguous with a decline in the movement of independent entrepreneurs from the United States, potential founders of firms or dynasties. These trends probably reflect a general coming of age more than the impact of particular nationalist policies or activities.
