Oh Canada! Let’s celebrate Canadian Entrepreneurs

Let’s celebrate Canadian enlightened entrepreneurs who are responsible corporate citizens and give a damn about people and the planet.

Those who understand that every enterprise is a social enterprise, not just a commercial enterprise that contributes to economic prosperity. Who also recognize and respect their responsibilities to the communities, institutions and organisations that support them and facilitate their success.

Enlightened entrepreneurs are easy to identify and distinguish from the stereotypical capitalist celebrity ego-maniac CEOs who are ruthlessly dedicated to increasing their personal wealth, power, and notoriety without concern for the consequences to people and the planet.   

You’ll find enlightened entrepreneurs in your neighbourhood, in foreign neighbourhoods, and online. They’re the business owners of the barber shop or body shop, corner store or local restaurant, health clinic, e-commerce site, or technology consulting firm that you know and trust. These are the businesses that retain loyal long-term customers because, in addition to meeting expectations for high value and reliable quality and service, their values and beliefs also align with those of their customers.    

Go Canada!

We’re on a mission to build Canada strong and free. Independent of unreliable and untrustworthy business partners, suppliers, and political and military allies.

It will be a challenging transition and we’ll need to invest in our people, our natural resources, and the necessary infrastructure to be stronger, to defend our sovereignty, and become a model nation for the world.

Let’s keep building. Start local, buy Canadian, and support enlightened entrepreneurs, wherever you find them, who share our common values of respect and responsibility for people and the planet.

Please find more Canadian enlightened entrepreneurs and join me in cheering them on. Give them a shout-out and let me know who you think should be on my Honour Roll for great Canadian enlightened entrepreneurs.

Thank you for your support and for remaining on my mailing list for Uncle Ralph’s commentary and occasional updates.  

Be better. Do better.

Be an Enlightened Entrepreneur.

Your Uncle Ralph,
