The CGPS is a project undertaken at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory (DRAO), in collaboration with a consortium of university astronomers, to image the atomic hydrogen and the radio continuum emission from the interstellar medium of the Galaxy. We describe the contributions this project can make to WR star research, in particular, and to the study of stellar wind sources, in general. Specific examples are presented.
