DOWNLOAD EBOOKA shift in US bank policy. A demonstration in Greece. A tsunami in Japan. In recent times, these kinds of events have had profound effects on the economic well-being of Canadians. In such a heavily globalized environment, it may seem that only large corporations with access to transnational resources can operate successfully, but Co-operative Canada demonstrates that this is not the case. Despite economic pressures following the 2008 recession, co-operatives in Canada are thriving. In fact, there are approximately nine thousand co-ops across the nation with a combined membership of about 18 million members – more than half the population of Canada. Drawing on the results of a large research project that examined co-operatives in communities from coast to coast to coast, Co-operative Canada reveals how Canadians are using the co-operative model to collectively respond to the forces of globalization through local, community-owned enterprises. It does this through specific examples that vividly describe the pragmatic realities of the communities these co-ops serve.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbstract: Canadian co-operatives have been linked with the international co-operative movement since it started over 100 years ago. Over the years, some linkages have strengthened and others have withered. This paper briefly describes the international cooperative organizations that exist today and the extent of Canadian involvement in them. It also outlines the potential for future development of these relationships.
