This is the 9th Annual Rosenzweig Report on Women at the Top Levels of Corporate Canada.

The 8th Annual Rosenzweig Report on Women at the Top Levels of Corporate Canada

The Annual Rosenzweig Report looks at the 100 largest publicly-traded companies in Canada, based on revenue, and examines how many of the top-paid leadership roles are held by women. Under law, public companies in Canada are required to disclose the compensation of their CEO, CFO and the next three highest-paid employees.
