    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.

    [!greater_sudbury@lemmy.ca](https://lemmy.ca/c/greater_sudbury) 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, [!canadasoccer@lemmy.ca](https://lemmy.ca/c/canadasoccer) would be a good community to add to the soccer category. For team-specific Canadian-based soccer teams, there's [!torontofc@lemmy.ca](https://lemmy.ca/c/torontofc) 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).

  • Would love if you could add !ndp@lemmy.ca, and perhaps combine it with canadapolitics under a "politics" category?

    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 !Windsor@lemmy.ca

    Hey, I added Burnaby, Anmore, Squamish, Whistler, Niagara Falls and Niagara on the Lake. https://lemmy.ca/c/Burnaby https://lemmy.ca/c/Anmore https://lemmy.ca/c/Squamish https://lemmy.ca/c/Whistler https://lemmy.ca/c/NiagaraFalls https://lemmy.ca/c/NiagaraOnTheLake Will moderate them, but looking for new mods who might live in these areas. I've lived either in or near them. And still visit.

    There are two communities I would really like to see some traffic driven to: !maplemusic@lemmy.ca - Celebrating Canadian music !givergaming@lemmy.ca - Celebrating Canadian games, gamedevs and studios I think these would be an easy add to the Canadian Social / Culture section.

    Hello! I have made the 2 political communities: Animal Protection Party of Canada and BC Greens for environmentalists and vegans to discuss important issues on the fediverse as I would like to encourage more growth on community owned social media ran by everyday canadians and to avoid the conflicts that may arise with corporate owned social media namely Facebook and Twitter interfering with campaigning that goes against their commercial interests. May I request that !appc and !bcgreens be listed under !ndp under the politics section. Please and Thank you <3
