Canadian Co-operative Association urges candidates to support the co-operative movement

Ottawa, April 12, 2011 -- With the first leaders' debate taking place April 12, the Canadian Co-operative Association is encouraging co-operators and friends of co-operatives to email party leaders and candidates in their riding to ask them to support co-operative recommendations for the next government through an on-line tool on CCA's web site.

You can access this tool at http://coopscanada.coop/en/gov_affair/Election-2011 The tool allows you to send a message to party leaders as well as all or some of the local candidates in your riding by writing in your postal code.
