I am a (relatively) new Canadian, and one of the joys of my life here has been exploring a whole new group of authors. I am leading a bookclub at the Red Deer Public Library this spring. The librarian laughed when I said I wanted to do (mostly) Canadian books.

PS: PM me if you want my list and I will see what I can do
I'll def PM you. I'm hosting a book club myself and considered doing an all CanLit one, but thought no one would want to join (I joked about it at first and the members said "yeah - wouldn't join that"). But, so far, 75% of books read are by Canadian authors.

I am not billing it as a CanLit thing--just choosing Canadian books. Our fall booklist is not yet set, maybe we can hook up and become sister bookclubs. Our library has done that with one of its other clubs. They have skyped a joint meeting/discussion, among other things.

Follow the link Peter provided (http://www.cbc.ca/books/canadareads/) and then subscribe to the feed. In my browser, I see an orange RSS icon in the address bar, clicked on it, and bam--I subscribed using my feed reader (iGoogle page for all things bookish I have set-up).
