The old Canadian Roots group was hosted by a service provider called Ning. They have moved to a paid model and after much consideration, we elected to bring the group into this website. Ning will be closing down all groups that have not opted into their paid model.

While our website is arranged differently than the Ning site, we believe overall that our planned features will allow you to have better experience in the long run.

I hope your cousins will consider joining us here. Membership at this level is free. To see the Roots (genealogy) threads, go to Community > From the Community Channel > Canadian Roots. The quick link to that section is http://canadashistory.ca/Community/Forums.aspx?forumid=7.

The main advantage to becoming an online member is that we can email our members when new features are launched and provide instructions to guide them through any process.

We hope you enjoy Canada's History!
