You know your industry best! We have created some tools and resources for the co-operative sector in order for you to help us raise the profile of co-operatives provincially.

We also suggest getting involved in your local or regional Co-op Network, or sector-specific Co-op Caucus, and advocate together as a group. If your business sector is not represented, contact us to see how we can help you.

Here is a list of resources you can use in future meetings with MPPs:
