One of the current discussions around movement strategy in North America is about creating a Hub for discussions and coordination in the region.
Of course, there was already the WALRUS, which has done a great job of keeping the affiliates in the United States connected and moving in the same direction, and Wikimedia Canada participants are often invited to these as well.
You may also be familiar with WikiConference North America, which is both a yearly conference and a user group serving the region.
It should be noted that Mexico and the Caribbean are typically considered within North America, are also discussed in Latin America and the Caribbean strategy talk.
More recently there have been a couple drafts for a de-centralized hub serving the region:

The latter suggests another aquatic themed acronym - NARWHAL - and here is a brainstorming thread to suggest what the “AL” should stand for)
What do you think about these ideas for a North America hub? There is also an upcoming global event (the third in the series), to discuss the piloting criteria for Hubs. It would be great to have users active in North America to attend and help move these conversations forward.
Feel free to talk about other things related to the movement strategy in North America in this thread as well! We can always split off popular topics into their own post, if needed.
