History

[edit | edit source]

In 1937, Tom Molloy, a reporter turned labour leader organized and created the Regina Co-operative Savings and Credit Union, which later came to be named Sherwood Credit Union.[6] Sherwood Credit Union (later Conexus Credit Union) in 1976 implemented the first automated teller machine in Canada at its two branches in Regina.[7] The project was developed for Sherwood Credit Union by the IT staff of CIS (Co-operative Insurance Services - later CGI) under contract to Saskatchewan Cooperative Credit Services (later Saskcentral). This venture involved cooperation from IBM Canada.

In April 2025, Conexus, Yorkton-based Cornerstone Credit Union, and Lloydminster-based Synergy Credit Union, announced their intent to merge, pending member and regulatory approval.[8] The merger was approved in June 2025, and will officially take effect January 1, 2026; the merged entity will inherit the Conexus Credit Union name and be led by its current CEO Celina Philpot.[9]
