We've had limited experience with ACOA. We like to be fairly self-sufficient.
However, our co-op has been able to obtain moneys over the years. Most recently, a couple of years ago, it was for forest management program assistance. In the last year it was turned down. With the downturn in the forest industry and it being a rural economic impact, we were quite disappointed. There was really no reason given, other than “got no money”.
