    If there is a growing community that should be in this list, please comment it below.

    If you think a category should / should not be in this list, let us know. There are so many amazing communities, but we also don’t want this list to feel overwhelming.

      There’s a fairly inactive community for Saskatoon: [email protected]

      Hopefully putting it here gets it more visibility.

      Edit: Since we don’t really hate each other, even if we pretend to, I’ll also point out Regina’s community: [email protected]

      /c/ThunderBay exists, but doesn’t have much activity yet.

      /c/Guelph exists. We try to keep it active. It’s really just me and @[email protected] posting articles from local news…

        Thank you! The community looks good :)

        I’ve gone through and updated the post/sidebar + added the community

    [email protected] is actually the 2nd or 3rd oldest city-based community on lemmy.ca . It’s not very active, but should definitely be added to this list.

    Also, [email protected] would be a good community to add to the soccer category.

    For team-specific Canadian-based soccer teams, there’s [email protected] of the MLS (US-league with 3 Canadian-based teams). Other MLS sides include Vancouver Whitecaps and CF Montreal, which I don’t think have a community created.

    None of the 8 Canadian Premier League teams, nor any of the numerous League1 Canada sides have taken steps to establish their communities yet (as far as I know).

      Thank you! Added all three to the post and the sidebar.

      I’ll also keep a look out for the other teams if they should pop up :)

    There are two communities I would really like to see some traffic driven to:

    [email protected] - Celebrating Canadian music

    [email protected] - Celebrating Canadian games, gamedevs and studios

    I think these would be an easy add to the Canadian Social / Culture section.

      Thanks! I’ve added them to the post and sidebar

      MapleMusic has a recent post on [email protected], but [email protected] could doesn’t so it could be good to post about it. Thanks for sharing them!

        The owner of those two communities deleted his account. They passed moderation of maplemusic to me and one other person, but givergaming got deleted with their account.

        I’ve created [email protected] to refill the void. Out of the two, a canadian gaming community was the one I was hoping to take off the most since I’m more of a gamer person than a music person. I’ve got some plans for fostering a community on there. I’ll post about it in !communitypromo once I’ve got it set up a bit nicer, it is sorta barebones at the moment.

        Strange how I didn’t want to mod any communities on here but ended up moderating 3!

    I went ahead and made a Windsor community! Windsor is the city I was born in and I grew up in Essex County, so I felt a little left out not being on this list. While the community is named for Windsor, I figured it’d make sense to welcome content from all over Essex county instead of making community bloat for every town in the county.

    /c/Windsor or [email protected]

      Thank you for making that, and sorry for the delay. It’s been updated in the post and sidebar now!

      We need some more activity there for sure. There are a lot of users here from Vancouver, we just don’t seem to use the community much
