Marty Frost

Test My 20 years as a member of a fast-growing worker co-op (the last 10 as general manager), 28 years as a co-op developer, 48 years in governance roles in cooperative organizations, from National (CHF Canada, CWCF, Co-op Investment Fund), Regional (BC Co-op Association, CHF/BC) to local (East End Storefront Co-op, CCEC Credit Union, Tidal Flats Housing Cooperative) have gifted me with a set of knowledge and experience that I am anxious to share with people who are interested in starting a cooperative, or making changes in an existing cooperative. Most recently I am involved in a new workers' cooperative tasked with assisting people in forming worker co-ops to assume ownership of an enterprise that employs them. What an exciting world we live in!
