  • Locating the Contributions of the African Diaspora in the Canadian Co-Operative Sector
    International Journal of CO-OPERATIVE ACCOUNTING AND MANAGEMENT, 2020 VOLUME 3, ISSUE 3 DOI: 10.36830/IJCAM.202014 Locating the Contributions of the African Diaspora in the Canadian Co-operative Sector Caroline Shenaz Hossein, Associate Professor of Business & Society, York University, Canada Abstract: Despite Canada’s legacy of co-operativism, Eurocentrism dominates thinking in the Canadian co- op movement. This has resulted in the exclusion of racialized Canadians. Building on Jessica Gordon Nembhard’s (2014) exposure of the historical fact of African Americans’ alienation from their own cooperativism as well as the mainstream coop movement, I argue that Canadian co-operative studies are limited in their scope and fail to include the contributions of Black, Indigenous, and people of colour (BIPOC). I also argue that the discourses of the Anglo and Francophone experiences dominate the literature, with mainly white people narrating the Indigenous experience. Finally, I hold that the definition of co-operatives that we use in Canada should include informal as well as formal co-operatives. Guyanese economist C.Y. Thomas’ (1974) work has influenced how Canadians engage in co-operative community economies. However, the preoccupation with formally registered co-operatives excludes many BIPOC Canadians. By only recounting stories about how Black people have failed to make co-operatives “successful” financially, the Canadian Movement has missed many stories of informal co-operatives that have been effective in what they set out to do. Expanding what we mean by co-operatives for the Canadian context will better capture the impact of co-operatives among BIPOC Canadians. Caroline Shenaz Hossein is Associate Professor of Business & Society in the Department of Social Science at York University in Toronto, Canada.

  • We Are the Rug Hooking Capital of the World”: Understanding Chéticamp Rugs (1927-2017)
    “We are the Rug Hooking Capital of the World”: Understanding Chéticamp Rugs (1927-2017) by © Laura Marie Andrea Sanchini A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In partial fulfilment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Folklore Memorial University December 3rd, 2018 St John’s Newfoundland Abstract This thesis is the story of how utilitarian material culture was transformed into a cottage industry, and eventually into high art. Chéticamp rug hooking is an artistic practice, one wrapped up in issues of taste, creativity, class and economics. Rug hooking in Chéticamp rose to prominence in the first half of the 20th century when Lillian Burke, a visiting American artist, set up a rug hooking cottage industry in the area. She altered the tradition to suit the tastes of wealthy patrons, who began buying the rugs to outfit their homes. This thesis examines design in rug hooking focusing on Chéticamp-style rugs. Captured within design aesthetics is what the rugs mean to both those who make and consume them. For tourists, the rugs are symbols of a perceived anti-modernism. Through the purchase of a hooked rug, they are able to bring home material reminders of their moment of experience with rural Nova Scotia. For rug hookers, rugs are a symbol of economic need, but also agency and the ability to overcome depressed rural economic conditions. Rug hooking was a way to have a reliable income in an area where much of the labour is dependent on unstable sources, such as natural resources (fishing, lumber, agriculture etc.).

We are inspired by the bravery of our soldiers at Normandy and moved by the words of John McCrae’s "In Flanders Fields." We are amazed at the vision of Louis-Joseph Papineau and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. We are enchanted by the paintings of Emily Carr and the writings of Lucy Maud Montgomery. We look back in awe at the wisdom of Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir George-Étienne Cartier. We are moved to tears of joy by the humour of Stephen Leacock and tears of gratitude for the courage of Tecumseh. We hold in high regard the determination of Emily Murphy and Rev. Josiah Henson to overcome obstacles which stood in the way of their dreams. We give thanks for the work of the Victorian Order of Nurses and those who organ- ized the Underground Railroad. We think of those who suffered and died at Grosse Île in the dream of reaching a new home.

  • The Success of the Federation of Southern Cooperatives/Land Assistance Fund and The
    One Member One Vote: The Success of the Federation of Southern Cooperatives/Land Assistance Fund and the Arizmendi Association of Cooperatives through Cooperative Leadership Mary Sutton Graduate School of Leadership and Change Antioch University Introduction In this exploratory case study (Yin, R.K., 2014), I investigate the original inspiration and motivations of two leaders who work with successful long-standing cooperative development projects: Carol Prejean Zippert is a founding member of the Federation of Southern Cooperatives, now the Federation of Southern Cooperatives/Land Assistance Fund, and Tim Huet is a founding member of the Arizmendi Association of Cooperatives. This exploration served to directly inform the development of ethical leadership strategies inside a social enterprise of my own design, Collective REMAKE: Art, Business, Education, Jobs, News, People, and Recycling for Sustainability. Collective REMAKE will support the development of worker-owned businesses and other kinds of cooperatives with people who have been incarcerated or individuals who are marginalized socially and economically, due to race, sex, class, gender identity, age or ability. The official launch of Collective REMAKE, 2017, corresponds to my admission into to the Graduate School of Leadership and Change at Antioch University. In 2017, Collective REMAKE received its first grant from the JIB Fund, Black Equity Initiative to launch a series of Cooperative Education and Development workshops with people who have spent time in prison or jail, with a focus on members of the African American community. Demonstrations of the success of that project include a positive response from participants, new cooperative businesses in development, and a substantial commitment from a network of cooperative partners from the community.

The program datesfrom 1853 when a Catholic theologicalschool was established at Arichat. In 1855 theschool was transferred to Antigonish,named St. Francis Xavier, enlarged and convertedinto a liberal arts college.By 1939, the faculty wai known for its interest inthe people of its constituency.S.F.X extension workers organized mass meetingsand small classes enrollingfarmers, miners, and factory workers in economicallyoriented adult education programs.The study clubs proved an adequate meansfor organizing labor and credit unionsand economic cooperatives. Eventually, thepeople owned their own lobsterfactories and marketing cooperatives; economic powerof the masses was being achieved.Basic to the philosophy of the S.F.X. extension program wasthe belief that educationalemphasis should be on the material and economic sothat u;timately the common manwould be free to devote his time and energiesto cultural pursuits.Although the program repudiates Marxism, economic cooperatives areadvocated, since they reward the members according to thepeople's creative .and .productiveability.

  • Canadian and Us Catholic Promotion of Co-Operatives in Central America and the Caribbean and Their Political Implications
    chapter 7 Canadian and us Catholic Promotion of Co-operatives in Central America and the Caribbean and Their Political Implications Susan Fitzpatrick-Behrens and Catherine C LeGrand This chapter examines the early development of Catholic co-operatives in Canada and the United States and traces their movement through the media- tion of Catholic missionaries to Latin America. By doing so, it offers insight into a transnational and religious dimension of co-operative development. In the case of Catholic-initiated projects in Latin America, credit, agricultural, and artisan co-operatives played a central role, while consumer co-operatives of- ten appeared secondary. This distinction may reflect the particularities of the Catholic mission regions in the Caribbean and Central America, where co-op- eratives developed to meet specific community needs and often originated in rural rather than urban areas. It may also be the result of the way co-operatives were embedded in mission projects that emphasized the development of Christian communities and viewed economic cooperation as an essential com- ponent of this development. This essay provides brief case studies of Catholic co-operative development in Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, and Guate- mala to illustrate the way that co-operatives evolved in the political context of each country. Finally, it suggests that in the 1960s Canadian and us Catholic- initiated co-operatives became integrated with the Canadian government’s International Development Agency (CIDA, created in 1968) and USAID develop- ment projects, suggesting a convergence of Church-State projects, with reli- gious agents’ initiative preceding secular support for co-operatives. The Spread of Catholic Co-operativism: The Antigonish Model in Canada and the United States One important thread in the history of co-operativism in the twentieth century comes out of Catholic social thought and practice, which, building on the Rochdale principles, sought to articulate a “third way” between commu- nism and capitalism.
