The three that have dropped from edmonton in the last year are still up and running, they all just say the same thing, prices went up to a point where it was not longer in their favor to continue paying.

I browse it a lot, but have never been a hugely active person here. And it is much slower this winter than last, and coming into spring now it's just getting worse.

Maybe I will create a build thread/journal.

I have found a couple that seem to be doing great, and are basically the lost traffic, well the local to me traffic.
But I have a firm dislike for facebook, so it sucks.

Well, that does happen in the market place. Unless a vendor is shipping nationally, it may not be in their interest to advertise to that market. We lost some, we got some new ones. That's the way it goes. But because some Edmonton vendors stopped advertising here, it really has no impact on the board. And browsing the Facebook group, it's mostly buying and selling, which to me, is a far secondary function of Canreef. If I see less activity in those forums, I'd be happier. This is primarily a Reef discussion board and in my experience here over the last 13 years, this year is the same as any other, except we have more and different members.

I've never been more then a casual poster here, but it still seems pretty active to me. Could be worse, could be AP

Maybe canreef needs a controversial thread to bring out everyone's passion.

I say the politics of religion... What's the pope doing this morning maybe he can chime in.

it's possible that a lot of reefers have been busy frantically trying to keep their tanks from completely crashing over the past year.

True story btw !

Bath salts. But you need to smoke them before you dose them
