How do I find the major shareholders of Canadian companies?

Our response:

You can find information about major shareholders in public companies through the System for Electronic Disclosure by Insiders (SEDI). All “reporting insiders” (those who hold more than 10% of shares) are required to file insider reports through SEDI.
