    Dear Professor McCarty,
            Professor Mel Wiebe of the Disraeli Project at Queen's University in
    Canada forwarded your request for info on language projects to me. At the
    Strathy Language Unit (http://post.queensu.ca/strathy) here at Queen's
    University we have been at work since 1984 developing a corpus of Canadian
    English, which we used to produce a guide to Canadian English usage
    (bibliographic info on the website) and which we are now using for research
    on ESL dictionaries. We this year became a international collecting partner
    with the Cobuild Bank of English, so our Canadian corpus will soon be
    available worldwide.
