Co-operatives and Mutuals Canada
CMC is proud to represent the co-operative and mutualist movement nationally. Become one of our members and obtain resources, research and representation of your interest with the federal entities.
More than ever, it is now important to support Canadian co-operatives by buying from them. When Canadians choose to buy from co-operatives, they are doing more than just making a purchase—they are investing in their communities and contributing to a stronger, more resilient Canada.


CMC 2025 Congress
Congress 2025 is going to be special. The United Nations has declared 2025 the International Year of Co-operatives and we at CMC are seizing this opportunity to celebrate how, by harnessing the power of the co-operation, our sector is tackling current issues and creating a more sustainable and equitable world. From presenters on sustainable agriculture and energy generation to panels exploring emerging business and social trends, Congress 2025 will ensure our attendees become the trailblazers the world of today needs to become the world of tomorrow.
“The Future is Co-op” is more than just Congress 2025’s theme, it’s what we believe.
CMC’s Congress 2025, presented by Co-operators, will be held at the Hotel Saskatchewan in Regina, Saskatchewan, from June 10 to 11, 2025.
CMC and Government Relations
As a part of its purpose, CMC regularly advocates for the co-operative and mutual sector at the federal level to ensure the ecosystem’s voice is being heard. Furthermore, CMC monitors federal government activities, funding announcements and emerging issues. It also regularly meets with Members of Parliament, Senators, political staff, departmental officials, and other public policy leaders to discuss sector priorities and to raise awareness on opportunities and concerns. CMC also works with its Members and partners to keep them informed and engaged.
