A: Yes, your primary focus should be building the Ubuntu community where you live. But it's easier for people to join something than start something. Keeping the national LoCo as a meeting place for people in the cities and towns to share ideas and gain support makes it easier for people to start something in their town. |

Canadian Team Chapters
Why Does Ubuntu Canada exist?
Q: What is the point of a Local group for Canada? English and French are already very well supported.
A: This is actually a good thing, because while many teams need to struggle with translation issues we do not. Instead, we can focus our efforts on the next logical step which is promotion and community building on a local scale.
Q: Quel est le but d'un groupe local pour le Canada? L'anglais et le français sont déja très bien supportés.
A: À vrai dire, c'est une bonne chose, parce que plusieurs équipes doivent se battre avec des problèmes de traduction que nous n'avons pas. À la place, nous pouvons concentrer nos efforts sur la prochaine étape logique, laquelle est la promotion et la construction d'une communauté à l'échelle locale.
Q: Canada's too big for just one group. Shouldn't we focus on the city or town level?
A: Yes, your primary focus should be building the Ubuntu community where you live. But it's easier for people to join something than start something. Keeping the national LoCo as a meeting place for people in the cities and towns to share ideas and gain support makes it easier for people to start something in their town.
