Co-op Census Update.

At last count Ontario had over 1900 co-operatives and credit unions, with over $19billion in assets. That's a lot of clout!! A co-op census, currently underway, will update those numbers, and present a portrait of the social and economic impact of the co-op sector. On Co-op is in the midst of contacting each co-op and credit union head office in the province to provide more information on the census, which can be completed online or by phone. Every Ontario co-op and credit union is encouraged to participate so that we can accurately portray the strength of the sector to government, funders and others.

For more information, visit www.Ontario.coop/census . On Co-op is conducting the census in partnership with Imagine Canada and the Social Economy Centre of the University of Toronto.
