What does it mean for Canada to truly control its economic destiny? Where have we fallen behind, and what would it take to rebuild national competitiveness in a world order that is changing in real time?

In this episode of Forthlane Features, Vanessa Hui and Rob Vanderhooft sit down with John Ruffolo, Founder and Managing Partner of Maverix Private Equity and a leading Canadian voice shaping the national conversation around innovation, capital formation, and economic policy. Together, they unpack the urgent issue of economic sovereignty.

Drawing on decades spent helping build Canada’s venture ecosystem, John explains why governments must move from neutrality to intentionality, why entrepreneurs need to lead, and why Canadian capital must be mobilized toward domestic growth.

Many of our clients tell us that today’s investment landscape feels more complex and uncertain than ever – and we agree. The dynamics that once made investing appear straightforward have shifted materially. For decades, portfolios benefited from a tailwind of falling interest rates, abundant liquidity, and steadily rising equity markets, particularly in the U.S. That backdrop is changing. Investors today must contend with a new set of macroeconomic headwinds, and an expanding universe of private and alternative asset classes that command institutional-grade expertise and access.

Forthlane Partners Ltd., a leading Canadian wealth and investment management firm dedicated to serving individuals, families, and foundations, today announced the appointment of Heather Stefanson to its Board of Directors as the firm’s second independent board member.
