A New Partnership for Canadian Open Source


The Linux Association of Canada is excited to announce a new collaboration with Maple Linux, the only Linux distribution developed specifically in Canada.

This partnership represents an important step toward strengthening Canada's open source ecosystem and creating new opportunities for developers, educators, students, organizations, and Linux users from coast to coast.

Maple Linux is currently the only Linux distribution developed in Canada, making it a unique contributor to Canada's growing open source community.

Supporting Canadian Innovation


Both organizations share a common vision: promoting open technologies, encouraging collaboration, and increasing awareness of Canadian contributions to the global open source movement.

Through this collaboration, the Linux Association of Canada and Maple Linux will explore opportunities to support community projects, educational initiatives, technical resources, and events that benefit Linux users throughout Canada.

Building a Stronger Linux Community


The Canadian open source community continues to grow, with contributors playing important roles in software development, research, education, and digital infrastructure.

Open source succeeds when communities work together. This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to building a stronger and more connected Linux community in Canada.

Looking Ahead


The Linux Association of Canada and Maple Linux look forward to working together on future initiatives that encourage innovation, knowledge sharing, and community participation.

Together, we are helping shape the future of Linux and open source technology in Canada.
