Our Vision
To foster a thriving, inclusive, and collaborative open-source ecosystem across Canada — where Linux and free software empower innovation, strengthen digital independence, and enable accessible technology for all.
What We Do
The Linux Association of Canada connects Canadians around open-source software through community events, a national chapter network (including the Linux User Group Saskatchewan), volunteer programs, an open-source software library, refurbished computer donations, support for local Linux user groups, and educational resources for newcomers and professionals alike.

Land Acknowledgement
The Linux Association of Canada respectfully acknowledges that our home in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is located on Treaty 6 Territory and the Homeland of the Métis. These lands have been home to First Nations peoples for thousands of years, including the Cree, Dakota, Nakota, and Saulteaux, who maintain deep and enduring relationships with the land and the South Saskatchewan River.
We are grateful to the First Nations and Métis peoples who have cared for these lands for generations. We honour their enduring relationship with the land, their cultures, histories, and contributions, and we offer our respect and sincere gratitude as we live, work, learn, and build community here.
