List of Buddhist temples in Canada

In list articles which are restricted to temples with Wikipedia articles, any exceptions must be cited to independent sources; the fact that a temple or organization has its own website does not establish that it is notable. That requires third-party citations, usually to newspaper or magazine articles about the temple or an event at the temple. See WP:LISTVERIFY and WP:SPS.
