    Physicians for a Smoke-Free Canada: Tobacco Project TABLE OF CONTENTS I Introduction 1 II Research Methodology 1 III Tobacco Screening Framework 1 IV Tobacco Companies and Countries of Origin 2 V Canadian Companies 6 Tobacco Manufacturers 6 Other Canadian Companies 7 VI Non-Canadian Companies 8 Michael Jantzi Research Associates Inc. Physicians for a Smoke-Free Canada: Tobacco Project I INTRODUCTION Michael Jantzi Research Associates Inc. (MJRA) tracks the social and environmental performance of Canadian companies. MJRA was retained to provide a list of Canadian firms that are involved in the manufacture of tobacco or tobacco-related products. Kinder, Lydenberg, Domini & Co., Inc. (KLD) provides social research on US corporations. KLD provided information regarding non-Canadian companies that manufacture tobacco or tobacco-related products. This report begins by exploring MJRA’s research methodology. It then describes the tobacco screen, which MJRA developed in order to define whether or not a company is involved with the manufacture of tobacco or tobacco-related products. Next, the report focuses on a table highlighting all tobacco companies and their countries of origin, before providing some additional information about the Canadian companies and non-Canadian firms identified by MJRA and KLD as having involvement in this area. II RESEARCH METHODOLOGY In reviewing and analysing the social performance of Canadian companies, MJRA utilises a comprehensive array of sources, including corporate documents and filings; major press (both national and international); periodicals, journals, and trade publications; government publications and databases; investment services databases, and our own files. MJRA analysts also conduct interviews with a wide variety of stakeholders, including community, company, industry, government, and union contacts.
