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.
!nanaimo@lemmy.ca is another city community.
Thanks! Added it to both
Love the banner and icon :)
/c/Guelph exists. We try to keep it active. It’s really just me and @CowsLookLikeMaps@sh.itjust.works posting articles from local news…
Thank you! The community looks good :)
I’ve gone through and updated the post/sidebar + added the community
/c/ThunderBay exists, but doesn’t have much activity yet.
thank you! Added
There’s a fairly inactive community for Saskatoon: !saskatoon@lemmy.ca
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: !regina@lemmy.ca
Thanks! Both have been added to the post & sidebar
!kingston_ontario@lemmy.ca exists but is super quiet still.
Thanks, it’s been added to both spots!
!CanadianSkincare@lemmy.ca is another community that is becoming more active
Thanks! I’ve added it to both lists under ‘💵 Finance, Shopping, Sales’
!greater_sudbury@lemmy.ca 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 would be a good community to add to the soccer category.
For team-specific Canadian-based soccer teams, there’s !torontofc@lemmy.ca 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 :)
If I see any, I’ll be sure to let you know!
Would love if you could add !ndp@lemmy.ca, and perhaps combine it with canadapolitics under a “politics” category?
Thank you, updated!
Cheers!
Thank you, it’s been added to both!
!kootenays@lemmy.ca (BC) is not growing much but could be added?
Thanks! It has been added to both post and sidebar
May I request that !fairvote@lemmy.ca be added under the politics section?
Thanks! Both should be updated now :)
!oceanside_bc@lemmy.ca East Vancouver Island - Nanoose Bay to Fanny Bay
thank you, it should be added now :)
Another good town on Lemmy!
There is also /c/TorontoCycling
Thanks! I added it under Toronto in the Cities / Local Communities section
Man Vancouver community is a wasteland…
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
Once one person starts posting regularly and others see it, eventually more people will join in!
Hey, I added Burnaby, Anmore, Squamish, Whistler, Niagara Falls and Niagara on the Lake.
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.
Thanks, I’ve added them all
If you want an example of a call for mods, here’s one I posted from a while back: https://lemmy.ca/post/31769390
I love the photos you chose for each community. Looking forward to seeing them grow!
Hey Otter, is the admin DM checked here? I sent a DM to there asking about taking over a specific community here that has an inactive mod and also inviting users from various Canadian Reddit subs to use this Lemmy, but it’s been like 2 or so weeks and no reply. No rush, or being pushy for a yes or anything, just want to know if it’s been received.
Hi Slyke,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you! The team has been extra busy these past few days. We did receive the message and we should have acknowledged it sooner.
Someone should hopefully review is soon and get back to you!
All good, thanks for letting me know!
please add !comoxvalley@lemmy.ca (BC)
Thanks! It has been added
Oh there’s also /c/QuebecLibre which is NOT about Québec separatism, but about free (as in LIBRE) open source software in Québec.
Added as well!
I added both to the
🍁 Social / Culture
section, and I listed this one asLogiciels libres au Québec
Hahaha that’s perfect
Hey does /c/bieres_quebec count?
Added!
There’s a French Canadian community as well:
Thanks! Added it to the social/culture section
