OTTAWA, September 6, 2024<\/strong>. Co-operative and Mutuals Canada (CMC) is excited to once again celebrate Co-op Week! From October 13 to October 19, 2024, CMC will highlight this important week with the theme of \u201cInnovating the Co-operative Way.\u201d This theme will help us highlight co-operatives from across Canada and the innovative ways in which they help serve their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEvery day, co-operatives from coast to coast to coast find clever solutions to the issues surrounding their communities,\u201d explains Hugues Bourgeois, CMC\u2019s Executive Director. \u201cThroughout CMC\u2019s 2024 Congress, we learned about the different ways some co-operatives have navigated change. It was an incredible display of how innovation is at the heart of the Canadian co-operative movement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To showcase the innovation within the sector, CMC will be hosting three webinars to introduce you to co-operatives that think outside of the box. Each webinar will be a 45-minute presentation, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
