A&M Records Of Canada Limited

Also written as A&M Records Of Canada Ltd. or A&M Records Canada Ltd. Legally operated under this name from 6 February 1970 to 31 December 1991.

Canadian record company established in February 1970 to distribute releases from the American label A&M Records in Canada (until 1970, distribution of A&M titles in Canada was handled by Quality Records Limited), and to sign and develop a roster of Canadian talent. Gerry Lacoursiere was the President for the company's entire existence.
In 1989, when PolyGram purchased the American parent label, A&M Records of Canada was also purchased by the Canadian division of PolyGram. In 1998 PolyGram merged with Universal Music Group, and today A&M is only an imprint label of the multi-national Universal Music Group.
