Morgan Meighen & Associates was founded in 1955 by Colonel Maxwell C.G. Meighen, but our history reaches back even further, to 1926 and the creation of what is today North America's second oldest closed-end fund. Here are some of the most noteworthy milestones in our long and storied history:

1928 Former Prime Minister of Canada, the Right Honourable Arthur Meighen co-founds Third Canadian General Investment Trust Limited, one of the oldest closed-end funds in North America.
1930 Canadian General Investments, Limited is created.
1955 Colonel Maxwell C.G. Meighen founds Maxwell Meighen & Associates as an independent investment manager with responsibility for the assets of the closed-end funds.
1962 Canadian General Investments and Third Canadian General Investment Trust are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).
1994 Canadian World Fund Limited is created and listed on the TSX.
1995 Canadian General Investments is listed on the London Stock Exchange.
1998 Morgan Meighen & Associates acquires Hughes, King & Company Limited and assumes management of private client portfolios.
1999 The Morgan Meighen Income Pool Fund is launched.
2000 Firm changes name to Morgan Meighen & Associates Limited.
