2026 INDUCTEES

KENNETH LE MESURIER CARTER

Kenneth Le Mesurier Carter earned a Commerce and Finance degree from McGill University and qualified as a Chartered Accountant in 1926. As a partner and longtime managing leader of McDonald Currie’s Toronto office, he helped guide the firm’s national growth and exemplified the expanding public role of the accounting profession. Carter’s most enduring contribution came with his appointment by Prime Minister John Diefenbaker in 1962 as Chair of the Royal Commission on Taxation. Leading extensive public consultations and research, the Commission produced the landmark Carter Report, which advanced the principle that all income should be taxed equally summarized by the phrase “a buck is a buck is a buck.” Although controversial, its recommendations directly shaped Canada’s 1972 tax reforms, including the introduction of capital gains taxation. Carter’s legacy continues to influence Canadian tax policy, accounting education, and professional ethics.
