There are several non-DP, non-PG efforts in Canada:

I would also add: http://www.fsj.ualberta.ca/biblio/default.htm Comparatively, it's a small collection, but the owner has told me he is willing to share his texts. (One has already been added to PG, and I have clearance for a few more)
The first might be amenable to co-operation and co-ordination.
The second, from my dealings with him, wouldn't be. Someone else may have better luck in opening a dialogue.
Once, when I already had a text done through DP (of poetry by William Henry Drummond) he shared his version of the text with me, so I could do a comparison to help find errors. I did get the impression though, that he would not regularly open up his copy-protected PDF files for anyone else.
The third, through Rénald Lévesque and other DP volunters, has already contributed some works to DP/PG by providing scans that were stored at the BNQ as PDF files.
