Are there any cool Canada wide cooperatives? (lemm.ee)

Hey everyone!

So I'm finally moving to Canada very soon (yayy). I'm moving to Calgary specifically. I asked this question in the Calgary community too, but I'll ask it here too for a Canada wide answer.

Are there any good cooperatives that I can support and purchase from? Sayyy large home furniture coops or phone co-operatives and so on... Are there any good news cooperatives? Maybe some nice clothing cooperatives? I know that credit unions are more province specific, but still... Any good credit unions that have a good Canada wide presence? Maybe little artisan shops in say some small town in Ontario that make good stuff n ship it across Canada?

Any name drops would be appreciated!

PS: I've heard about Calgary Coop, so yeah... Anything more than this?

I see. Are there any clothing coops? I'm not really seeing even a single one of those online among the coop federation.
