Neighboring LUGs and Other Computing User Groups in Toronto

I'm trying to compile a list[0][1] of neighboring linux user groups and other computing user group in the Toronto area for the GTALUG website. Does anyone know of any user groups that should be added to this list? [0]: <https://gtalug.org/other-groups/> [1]: <https://github.com/gtalug/website/blob/master/pages/other-groups.markdown>

| From: Myles Braithwaite via talk <talk@gtalug.org> | I'm trying to compile a list[0][1] of neighboring linux user groups and | other computing user group in the Toronto area for the GTALUG website. Great. I wonder if putting this on the wiki would be better. My guess: no because nobody would feel responsible to curate the list. Would there be a reasonable way for page to invite contributions WITHOUT generating a lot of SPAM for you? | Does anyone know of any user groups that should be added to this list? The Raspberry Pi Toronto Meetup kind of fits between the two categories: it isn't a Linux group, but Linux is pretty central to the Raspberry Pi, not just background. <http://www.meetup.com/Raspberry-Pi/> The GPU Programming meetup group is interesting to me. Not very active. Some of it is Linux-related. <http://www.meetup.com/GPU-Programming-in-Toronto/>

I'm not really sure. I'm in the process of redesigning the website with a large push for contributions (though GitHub's PR workflow)

Shouldn't K-W LUG be included on the list?

LibrePlanet Ontario <https://libreplanet.org/wiki/Group:LibrePlanet_Ontario> We are not a "Linux user group" (sic), we're a Free Software group with members across Ontario, but I guess it's worth listing it.
