The 2013-05 Chessbase file is ready for download.

Thanks to GM Spaggett for some nice advertising too.

‘Canada’s NUMBER ONE source for Canadian Chess news, games and other information! Started several months ago as an off-shoot of the popular BCN, Yip has revolutionized the way the average Canadian amateur finds out what is happening in Canada! 

Updated daily!

As a short aside, since Yip has started to cover Canadian Chess tournaments and players, the CFC has been scrambling to try to catch up! 

 The CFC website(Newsfeed) has just created a dedicated newsfeed, but so far the editor behind this initiative has stumbled, messed-up and, at times, failed miserably to deliver the right content for the CFC’s members! (more).’
