How it works

COR is a public registry where proponents and offset providers can find each other and connect directly. When it helps, the COR team can also make an introduction, privately and only with both parties' consent.

I need offsets I have offsets: guide for offset providers

The three steps

  1. Find each other on the registry

    Offset providers list offsets on the public map. Proponents browse them and get in touch, directly or through COR.

  2. Or tell COR privately

    Proponents can tell COR about an offset need, and offset providers can tell us privately what they could deliver. Nothing is published.

  3. Introductions, with consent

    When we see a possible fit, the COR team can make an introduction, only with both parties’ consent. From there the parties work directly. Regulators decide whether any offset satisfies a requirement.

I need offsets

Tell us the habitat type, rough location, rough quantity and timeframe. We look for offsets that could fit and ask for your consent before sharing anything.

Post an offset need

I have offsets

For conservation groups, land trusts, First Nations, landowners and restoration practitioners. List an offset on the registry, or tell us privately what habitat work you could deliver. Nothing is published unless you choose to list it.

What COR is not

  • Affiliated with the Government of Canada or any regulator
  • A regulatory approval. A listing does not certify a credit or an offset.
  • A holder of funds. COR does not hold money or process transactions.

Fees

Browsing the registry and listing an offset are currently free.
