{{Wikimedia Canada}}

Wiki Canada is a nonprofit organization committed to the growth, development and distribution of [[free Canadian content]].  It is presently in negotiations with the Wikimedia Foundation Chapters committee to act as a Canadian partner and Wikimedia Canada chapter.  Two members of the Wiki Canada board of directors will be attending the Wikimedia Conference 2011 to further this development.  In the mean time, feel free to register on the Wiki and partake in the discussions.
