CanadianGameDevs.com (originally TorontoGameDevs.com) was created by Stephen Crane in 2015 to cover the games made where he lived. Turns out- he wasn't alone in wanting to "shop locally" when it came to games and the news site grew a community around it of game developers, players and fans who all wanted coverage of the games made in Canada and the folks who create them. The site changed to country-wide coverage, Stephan Reilly (two Steve's, we know) joined in 2019 and they've been working on the site and community ever since!
