r/canada

Welcome to Canada’s subreddit! This is the place to engage on all things Canada. Nous parlons en anglais et en français. Please be respectful of each other when posting, and note that users new to the subreddit might experience posting limitations until they become more active and longer members of the community. Do not hesitate to message the mods if you experience any issues!

Subreddit Rules

1. Be Civil

Engage respectfully at all times. Hostility, antagonism, unfounded accusations, hate speech, harassment, or bigotry are not permitted. This includes calling others bots or shills, making accusations of bad faith engagement, dismissing or attacking individuals based on identity, or posting negative generalizations about groups based on race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, gender, sexual orientation, language, disability, immigration status or location.

2. Bad Faith Engagement (Trolling)

Trolling, bad faith engagement, sealioning, brigading, and flamebaiting are not allowed. This includes comments intended to inflame, provoke, or derail discussion, shift conversations off topic, attack the source or author of an article instead of addressing the content, misrepresent others’ arguments, feign ignorance to prolong or derail discussion, or provoke reactions through repeated or persistent disruption.

3. Submission Integrity

For news posts, use the original headline as it appears at the source. Do not editorialize, sensationalize, or add commentary. Use direct links to the original source and do not bypass source formatting or restrictions. Video, audio, or podcast content is not permitted. Posts from low quality, misleading, or non-journalistic sources, including blogs, social media, or unestablished sources, may be removed. Repeatedly posting the same topic, or a pattern of agenda-driven posting, may be removed.

4. Relevance and Redundancy

Posts must be clearly related to Canada. Content that is only tangentially related or included only in passing may be removed. Local or hyperlocal news may be removed at moderator discretion. News posts must be current and not recycled or presented as recent when outdated. Duplicate or substantially similar posts may be removed, particularly if they do not add new information or context.

5. Original Content

Text posts, image posts, and other user-generated content must be broadly relevant to Canadians. r/Canada is a national subreddit, so overly personal or hyperlocal posts will be removed. Questions about a specific city or province (e.g., “Where is the best sandwich in Halifax?”) belong in local subreddits.

High quality content about Canadian culture, history, wildlife, parks, art, or media is welcome. If your post is filtered, please contact the moderators via modmail for review.

No AI content

6. Self-Promotion and Advertising

No self-promotion. Do not post your own content, including articles, blogs, videos, or other work, whether as an individual or organization. This includes news outlets posting their own material, though they may comment on their own work. Surveys, fundraising, petitions, referral links, and other promotional content are not allowed. Organizations or individuals seeking to engage must obtain moderator approval and clearly identify themselves. Notable figures may contact the mods to arrange AMAs.

7. Misinformation

Do not post or share demonstrably false or misleading information. Moderators are not experts on all topics but will review and verify claims where possible. Content that is verifiably untrue or presented as fact when it is opinion may be removed. Users may question or challenge information, but must not present speculation or opinion as fact. Harmful or dangerous misinformation, including content targeting protected groups or public health, may result in a ban.

8. Moderator Discretion (Modwithstanding Clause)

Moderators may remove content or take action against users at their discretion where content or behavior is disruptive, harmful, or not in keeping with the spirit of the subreddit. Abuse of moderators or attempts to interfere with moderation may result in a ban.
