Wikipedia:WikiProject Volcanoes/Volcanism of Canada task force

Say What?

This is a task force for volcanoes of Canada and related subjects. The most important volcanoes of Canada are illustrated above. Depending on how much support we get, the goal is either a Featured or a Good topic. Involved parties would be WP:CANADA and WP:VOLCANO. The topic covers all of the volcanoes in Canada, provincial parks noted for protecting volcanoes and volcanic landscapes, people and places notable for their association with a Canadian volcano, as well as the core article, Volcanism of Canada. All interested persons can simply scribble their name under "Interested." I hope that I we can work togethor to get what I think is a very important topic where it should be! Also see the Volcanism of Hawaii Workgroup.
