The URL for Canada is <http://gils.gc.ca>
There are also some Canadian environment and natural resources directories 
which one of my colleagues may identify.
You might put us under Metadata Maintenance Facilities  as well.  There's a
possibility that our Web based record creation tool and our Data conversion
tool could be made available.  Contact Stephen White at Government
Telecommunications and Informatics Services:
