- A Team Production Theory of Canadian Corporate Law

Few Canadian firms have explicit policies dealing with the aging of their workforces but many firm policies have unanticipated consequences for older workers and the age composition of the workforce. Focusing on downsizing, we draw on five Canadian case studies of firms in different sectors and with varying policy initiatives....

- Applying Asset-Based Community Development as a Strategy for CSR: A Canadian Perspective on a Win-Win for Stakeholders and SMEs
This paper explores a case study of one Canadian SME that uses a community development framework called Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) for its CSR programming. Because ABCD relies heavily on the development and maintenance of social capital and can be utilized to attain set objectives, we propose that it provides a supplementary framework through which the arguments of Porter and Kramer can be expanded. In applying the ABCD framework for CSR, we can begin to establish a programme that supports strategy, integrates employees and stakeholders towards a common vision, and creates unique and sustainable alternatives towards the resolution of social and corporate goals....
