Canadian Pacific Limited, which was completed on October 1, 2001.
Effective today, CP Ships is also included in the S&P/TSE 60 Index of top Canadian publicly listed companies, as well as the TSE 300 and the S&P Global 1200.
A leader in the majority of its core markets, CP Ships' earnings have
consistently exceeded cost of capital throughout the business cycle. It is the only container shipping company to be listed in North America.
