    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 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).

      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!

        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 !canadiangaming@lemmy.ca 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!

    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
