  16. A co-operative is a corporation that is owned, controlled, and operated by a group of people for their own benefit. Each member pays an annual membership fee and shares in any profits gained by the business. Sometimes members work a minimal number of hours per month as part of their duties (in many food co-operatives, for example). Fishermen and farmers catch and produce their own products, but part of the marketing is done through jointly owned "co-ops". Co-operatives are generally governed by a board of directors elected by the membership annually or bi-annually. Cooperatives do things differently from other businesses: their purpose, control structure and allocation of profit are all different. The main purpose of a co-operative is to meet the common economic, social, and cultural needs of their members (not to maximize profits). Co-operatives use the one-member/one-vote system (as opposed to the usual business system of one-vote-per-share) The allocation of profit is done on the basis of how much each member uses the co-op, not how many shares they hold. There are approximately 10,000 cooperatives in Canada, employing roughly 1,500,000 people; four in ten Canadians belong to a co-operative. Some co-ops are listed in Canada's top 500 companies and several financial co-operatives have been rated the best places to work in Canada. Many of you may already belong to a co-op.
