Writer A writer, editor, and graphic designer, Douglas Hunter has written widely on business, history, and sport. A former staff writer with the Financial Post (and graduate of the Canadian Securities Course), he has authored or coauthored more than a dozen books, a number of which have approached business from very different angles, including Open Ice, which detailed the birth of Canada's monumental food industry success, Tim Hortons, and Molson, which delved into the late-eighteenth century origins of the Montreal brewing dynasty. His study of the Nortel stock debacle, The Bubble and the Bear, won the 2003 National Business Book award. He is a coauthor of Building the Best: Inside Canada's Best Managed Companies (Penguin Group Canada, 2006).
