Wolters Kluwer Canada can trace its origins back to 1931 when, as the Kingsland Company, it was responsible for numerous insurance and legal publications.
In 1939 the Kingsland Company became the exclusive distributor in Canada for Commerce Clearing House Inc.'s loose leaf publication Canadian Tax Reports in three volumes.
In 1950, Mr. Kingsland sold his interest in the company and CCH Canadian Limited became a wholly owned affiliate of Commerce Clearing House, Inc.
In 1979, CCH Canadian acquired Formules Municipales Ltée (FM), a Quebec-based company which had been supplying forms and stationery requirements of the municipalities and school boards of Quebec since 1886.
Wolters Kluwer's core publishing markets include legal, tax and business, health, science, and education, in 26 countries, as well as North America.
