We receive a number of types of support but mainly support for provincial or national organizations, whether it be the Conseil québécois de la coopération et de la mutualité or the Conseil canadien de la coopération et de la mutualité. As Ms. Ferland said, we contribute to the government partnership program to promote the development of cooperatives. We are not part of a specific sector. Rather, we are there to support organizations that support the development of cooperatives.
We also support SOCODEVI, an international development cooperative, which has been around since 1984. This organization helps us to live by one of the cooperative principles, which is that of promoting international co-operation. At Agropur, we engage in international development in this manner by supporting the development of cooperatives in other countries.
Cooperatives are a powerful tool for supporting communities. Because we believe in our business model, we do what we can to support it. However, as I indicated in the brief, there is a limit; Agropur is a company and must therefore ensure its profitability and sustainability.
