The Co-operatives Secretariat, housed in Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada is dedicated to economic growth and social development of Canadian society through co-operative enterprise. The mandate of the Cooperatives Secretariat is to:

* inform the federal government's key players about the role and the potential of co-operatives in the development of Canadian society and its economy.
* foster a beneficial exchange of views among the federal, provincial and territorial governments, co-operatives, academics and other stakeholders engaged in the development of co-operatives.
* facilitate interaction between co-operatives and the federal government.
* provide governments, key economic stakeholders and the general public with information that promotes an accurate understanding of co-operatives and the co-operative model of enterprise. The Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food is responsible for the Cooperatives Secretariat. (en)
