Is there a community on Lemmy for discussing Cancon? (Canadian-made content like books, games, etc.) (lemmy.ca)

I was thinking recently that while I shifted my buying habits pretty drastically for things like groceries (to buy local and Canadian if possible), I kept the same habits for books, video games, etc.

Is there somewhere here that would be good for posting things like discussions about Canadian-made art/lit/games? Not so much in a 'buy Canadian' sense as in a 'Talk about Canadian-made culture' kinda way.

If there isn't something like this already I could create a community, though hopefully I wouldn't end up the only person posting there... If I did make one I was thinking it could be for both recent things and nostalgic/retro Cancon. (Growing up, there were cool things like Reboot or 3D animated shorts on YTV that were Canadian.)

I thought about posting on BuyCanadian but I was worried they would find it off-topic as that place is more focused on products. (e.g. Not so a place for talking about a Canadian book you read recently.)

That's a good point about splitting it up between the different locations. EhVideos seems like it has the shows/movies/old commercials covered. MapleMusic would work if I wanted to talk about Unleash the Archers or something like that.

I'm not necessarily opposed to creating one, though.
