The rights of our members are governed under the BC Cooperative Association Act and ICSC Rules, which all members receive a copy of.  Each membership share is entitled to one vote at any general meeting called under the Act.

The membership fee for ICSC is $50 per membership share.  As such, shareholders can be “lifetime” supporting members of ICSC with a one time payment!  Individuals are required to have at least one share, and two or more people may purchase a joint membership.  Businesses or community groups may also become members by purchasing shares.  Member shares are redeemable or transferable within specific limitations set out in the ICSC Rules.  In specific, ICSC will issue payment for redeemed membership shares within one year from the date of withdrawal from membership.
