Only a handful of Canadian companies have consistently delivered outstanding returns and earned market trust through their remarkable consistency, resilience, and world-class execution. Even in volatile environments, these companies continue to offer investors reliable long-term wealth growth opportunities.
Using the iShares S&P/TSX 60 Index ETF as a market benchmark, the Toronto Stock Exchange has delivered an average annualized total return of approximately 11.5% over the past decade. This means a $10,000 initial investment would have grown to about $29,590. However, the two Canadian stocks highlighted in this article—WSP Global and Brookfield—have significantly outperformed the broader market, demonstrating exceptional growth potential.
WSP Global (WSP) is a globally leading engineering and professional services firm, providing consulting and design services for infrastructure, environmental, and real estate projects. It plays a critical role in shaping modern society. The company boasts a highly diversified revenue structure and a balanced business distribution. As of the end of 2024, its regional revenue breakdown was as follows: 17% from Canada, 43% from the Americas, 27% from Europe, the Middle East, India, and Africa, and 13% from the Asia-Pacific region. In terms of sectors, 37% came from transportation and infrastructure, 31% from earth and environment, 21% from property and buildings, and 11% from power and energy.
Driven by both organic growth and strategic acquisitions, WSP has continuously expanded its business scale. Over the past decade, the company has achieved an annualized return of 23.3%, turning a $10,000 investment into $81,190. This performance is not only impressive but also represents an elite standard in the industry.
On the other hand, Brookfield Corp. (BN) stands as a model of long-term wealth creation. As one of the world’s largest alternative asset managers, it oversees more than $1 trillion in assets under management across infrastructure, renewable energy, private equity, real estate, and other sectors. The company’s core strategy is clear and effective: invest in alternative assets that generate sustainable cash flows, continuously optimize the asset structure, generate profits through management and performance fees, and exit mature investments at the right time to reinvest capital into high-potential opportunities.
This model has delivered significant returns to shareholders, with an annualized return of 17.7% over the past decade. A $10,000 investment would have grown to $51,060. Brookfield doesn’t just participate in the market—it drives tangible value growth by owning and operating critical economic infrastructure.
