Hi Tasha!
Thanks for the feedback! This team is run by Etsy admin and it's really an opportunity for us to announce new product launches and Canadian-specific opportunities.
That being said, we encourage conversation among members, absolutely! It's just that the main function for this team is for Canadian Etsy admin to connect with Canadian sellers.
There are so many wonderful, active teams run by Etsy members that I would encourage you to also participate in. Just go to etsy.com/teams and type in a specific location or topic and a ton of teams will show up!
As Ola mentioned, it's a good idea to subscribe to the digest so that when new discussions get pinned, you'll be notified.
Thanks!
