I would like to inquire whether or not it is possible to propose new 
groups under the can. hierarchy.  I don't have ftp access and so cannot 
download the FAQ document for which the answer is probably there!

Youth Parliaments are non-profit and non-partisan organizations which 
provide students between the ages of 16-24 with invaluable experiences in 
debating, public speaking and in some provinces community service.  They 
hold mock sessions of parliaments once a year.  B.C. and Manitoba are in 
their provincial legislatures in December, for example.

I am writing on behalf of the British Columbia Youth Parliament 
(http://www.vcn.bc.ca/bcyp).  A can.youth.parliament newsgroup would 
generate a lot of discussion and interaction between:

BCYP
Tuxis Youth Parliament of Alberta
Saskatchewan Youth Parliament
Manitoba Youth Parliament
Ontario Youth Parliament
Newfoundland and Labrador Youth Parliament

I believe this is beneficial to all our orgganizations -- with a combined 
membership of over 1000 in the youth parliaments and high school-only 
versions (regionals/minis), there is a great demand for a central 
discussion medium -- a newsgroup.  Additionally, there are thousands more 
Alumni -- some still active in the organizations -- who would be using 
this newsgroup.

I look forward to a reply from any system admin!!!
