    Well done getting this site and list together so fast. Much appreciated.

    • NCFA

      Thanks for your support Roii!

  • http://www.startingtrends.com Darryl Burma

    Nice work on starting this directory. As a fellow Canadian entrepreneur involved in the crowdfunding scene I have bookmarked this link and I’m sure it will prove to be quite useful.

    • NCFA

      Thanks Darryl, looking forward to meeting up soon.

  • http://www.helixcommerce.com Cindy Gordon

The focus is on social impact, entrepreneurs, education & the environment. Appreciate your community leadership. Dr. Cindy Gordon, CEO, Helix Commerce International Inc.

    • NCFA

      Hi Cindy, all updated – thanks for the feedback.

  • http://www.crowdsourcing.org Archenette R. Evangelio

    Thank you for your list. It’s a great reference to sites that are not yet added into our directory of sites – at http://www.crowdsourcing.org/directory

    One more thing though, please re-check propertiii.ca and wicitoh.com – as I clicked on the links, they’re not live anymore

    • NCFA

      Hi Archenette, thanks for your interest. I’ve connected with both of the site owners and have validated that they are planning to launch related platforms in the future. We’ll consider these sites to be in ‘closed beta’ status../thanks

  • http://plebs.ca Eric Bisson

    Plebs.ca is now live (Open beta) and accepting projects :) Already 1 french project submitted.

    And you can add those two from Quebec also: Piñataaa : https://www.facebook.com/pinataaaqc
