Co-operative Canada
Author: Brett Fairbairn
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 0774827912
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
A 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.

A Strategy of Development for the Canadian Housing Cooperative Movement
Author: Leonard X. Pomerleau
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
This monograph describes the advantages and disadvantages of four strategies used by various continuing housing co-operatives to develop the co-op housing sector in Canada. It describes the values served by these different strategies, and analyses the continuing housing co-operatives from a social science perspective. The author then proposes a new development strategy which he calls "institutional innovation diffusion". It combines the more successful aspects from two of the above strategies, with the concept of facilitators or advocates (a variation of resource groups) who provide technical services to new local continuing housing co-ops. The new strategy underscores the importance of learning and communication processes.
