[CivicAccess-discuss] Copyright Consultation

[Tracey P. Lauriault]

Some on the list may want to consider this!  If you do submit, can you share
with the list?  There are lots of issues related to data, and my guess is
crown copyright will not disappear any time soon, but there are some work
arounds such as (http://www.geobase.ca/geobase/en/licence.jsp).   Digital
Copyright Canada has some resources to help out here -
http://www.digital-copyright.ca/.  I have contacted them to find out when
the deadline is!

Here are the questions and this is where you go to answer them -
