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.
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.
For sure! Sorry for the delay, I wanted to sit down at a computer to make the changes properly and check over all the links, and then kept procrastinating.
They should be updated now, thank you for making those!
!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.
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).
I have recently created two first nations based communities on Lemmy.ca as requested from the 2023 instance census. Please add !fns@lemmy.ca & !fnl@lemmy.ca to the community list.

/c/ThunderBay exists, but doesn’t have much activity yet.
thank you! Added
We’re deep in the summer NBA doldrums but !torontoraptors@lemmy.ca is trying to get traction.
Thank you! added
!nanaimo@lemmy.ca is another city community.
Thanks! Added it to both
Love the banner and icon :)
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
/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
Be sure to add !portalberni@lemmy.ca
Thank you! It has been added to the post and the sidebar
Awesome good to have more spaces on Lemmy <3
Cheers!
There is also /c/TorontoCycling
Thanks! I added it under Toronto in the Cities / Local Communities 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.

Please and Thank you <3

Thank you Otter! A lot of things work nicely doing on the computer.
We got 13 political parties in BC and 18 In Canada. 15% and 16% are respectively covered on Lemmy.
So hopefully more join the list so that more people can receive their messaging on the Fediverse.
!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.

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!
I have recently created two first nations based communities on Lemmy.ca as requested from the 2023 instance census. Please add !fns@lemmy.ca & !fnl@lemmy.ca to the community list.
Thank you! I’ve renamed the last section and added the new communities there
I also made !inuit and !indigenous communities. Gotta cover everyone :)
Sorry for the delay, it’s been updated!

May I request that !fairvote@lemmy.ca be added under the politics section?
Thanks! Both should be updated now :)
Would love if you could add !ndp@lemmy.ca, and perhaps combine it with canadapolitics under a “politics” category?
Thank you, updated!
@leftwingmememachine @otter don’t you mean ndp@lemmy.ca?
At least in the browser, adding an exclamation mark redirects you to the community. Without the exclamation mark my phone thinks its an email address.
Yep, that’s what happens in my web browser as well. I get a
mailto:link when I click on that!kootenays@lemmy.ca (BC) is not growing much but could be added?
Thanks! It has been added to both post and sidebar
!oceanside_bc@lemmy.ca East Vancouver Island - Nanoose Bay to Fanny Bay
thank you, it should be added now :)
Another good town on Lemmy!
!vancouverisland@lemmy.ca
Thank you, it’s been added to both!
