Hey everyone!
So I’m finally moving to Canada very soon (yayy). I’m moving to Calgary specifically. I asked this question in the Calgary community too, but I’ll ask it here too for a Canada wide answer.
Are there any good cooperatives that I can support and purchase from? Sayyy large home furniture coops or phone co-operatives and so on… Are there any good news cooperatives? Maybe some nice clothing cooperatives? I know that credit unions are more province specific, but still… Any good credit unions that have a good Canada wide presence? Maybe little artisan shops in say some small town in Ontario that make good stuff n ship it across Canada?
Any name drops would be appreciated!
PS: I’ve heard about Calgary Coop, so yeah… Anything more than this?
Howdy neighbour! You are absolutely correct, there are several different Co-ops all using the same logos and such. There has also been some consolidation. Peninsula Co-op merged with the Comox Valley Co-op and North-Island Co-op. There used to be more co-ops.
