When my friend Evan Prodromou in Montreal suggested (on Mastodon) now
being a good time to establish new Mastodon instances, Darcy Kasselman
invited posting of a (similar) guide to Canadian legal/regulatory
pitfalls, here:

I haven't seen a substantive response yet, but am pointing out the
thread in case one is posted (or someone here can help).

Denise's partially USA-centric rundown is quite thorough.
If people want a one-stop guide to Mastodon's main quirks and folkways,
I'm told one can start here:
