I've always just gone to my local Co-op. You still have to check specific products, but at least the general organization is as local as it can get.

Same here.

It's a pitty the eastern half of the country doesn't seem to have that option.

As someone who grew up on the Prairies, I always found it a little weird that Co-ops were just a thing in the west.

Seriously...they send a percentage of what you spend with them back to you each year as a dividend....who wouldn't want a co-op?

Co-op regulations are different per province. The west has fuel and grocery coops, but Ontario has way more housing coops.
