The Canadian Co-operative Association, the Conseil canadien de la coopération, and IPAC created the Co-operative Alternatives for Public Services (CAPS) project to examine the role of co-operatives in the delivery of public services in Canada and abroad. This volume brings together the insights and case studies of top experts and leaders from the co-operative movement, government, and the broader civil sector about the potential for co-operatives to bring creative alternatives and a new perspective to the delivery of public goods in an era of continuing government reform.
