This is one of 2 papers prepared for the Canadian CED Network which take a closer look at the policy frameworks to support CED and the Social Economy which exist in Quebec and Manitoba. The papers take a historical view of the development of such policy in these provinces and seek to identify the main factors which made this development possible. As these are the 2 Canadian provinces most advanced with respect to CED policy, it is hoped that such an analysis may provide models to inform the policy and advocacy work of the Social Economy movement in other parts of the country as well as abroad.
