Since Canada was the 2nd country to participate in USENET and contains
a reasonable amount of USENET, it should not surprise you to know that there
is already a "can" hierarchy with a variety of groups.

A number of sites in the U.S. get these groups and have participants, mostly
expatriate Canadians.  I am sure you can get a feed of any of the can groups
via NNTP from some of the Canadian sites on the internet, or by phone.
I think even uunet has them.

Of course, they contain lots of USA bashing, so I'm not sure how much
the yanks at your site would enjoy them.  Here are some of them -- there
are a few other minor ones.

	can.general 02377 02349 y
	can.politics 02489 02487 y
	can.ai 00049 00049 y
	can.jobs 00380 00379 y
	can.francais 00207 00207 y
	can.uucp 00116 00116 y
	can.usrgroup 00198 00192 y

En can.francais, on parle francais, mais il y a beaucoup d'anglais aussi.
