Granted, it's a tiny market, but with the disappearance of most of the tax-advantaged venture capital firms from the Canadian market it's interesting to see that U.S. venture firms are increasingly driving things.

I was pondering the best way to work through a “business plan series” (similar to the Term Sheet series and Letter of Intent series) when Dave Jilk - my partner in Feld Technologies (my first company) - dropped a few documents on my desk, including the original Feld Technologies business plan. A scanner, Adobe Acrobat PDF maker, and a little OCR later, I had the document in electronic format.
