       Welcome to the Canadian chapter of the GNU Project,
       now in the gopherspace!  GNU Canada hopes to be a welcoming
       group of people working together on furthering GNU and the
       free software movement in Canada through advocacy, activism,
       as well as developing and contributing to free software
       projects, especially GNU packages.
       
       GNU was launched by Richard Stallman (rms) in 1983, with the
       goal of developing a wholly free (as in freedom) operating
       system, the GNU operating system, to give all software users
       control and freedom over their computing.  Today, the GNU
       system is most commonly used with the kernel Linux, the
       system we call [GNU/Linux].  To learn more about [GNU],
