Canada Goose vaults Dani Reiss from aspiring writer to millionaire

Toronto

DANI Reiss had no intention of running a billion-dollar clothing empire when he joined his dad's shop making winter parkas 20 years ago. He was an English literature graduate from the University of Toronto, looking for a few bucks to finance his travel plans.

"The last thing I ever thought I would do was work for my parents in the family business," Mr Reiss said in an interview last year. "I wanted to be a short-story writer; I wanted to write fiction."
