The Co-operators

http://www.cooperators.ca/

They were farmers who had lost most of their savings during the Great Depression. So in 1945 they made a promise. A pledge to find a better way to protect their families and everything they had worked hard to achieve. They believed by working together they could build a more secure future for all and offer insurance based on fairness, integrity and value. That simple vision formed the foundation of The Co-operators.

1. Secure and coordinate national development resources, in order to support the development of worker co-ops;
