Local Chapters

Bringing Canada’s Linux community together, one city at a time.

We’re building Canada’s first national Linux chapter network.

Imagine a place where Linux enthusiasts, developers, students and open-source advocates in your city can meet regularly, share knowledge, run workshops and represent the LAC locally. That’s exactly what we’re building — and we need people like you to make it happen.
