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 - http://copyright.econsultation.ca/topics-sujets/show-montrer/18

Questions

  1. How do Canada’s copyright laws affect you? How should existing laws be modernized?

  2. Based on Canadian values and interests, how should copyright changes be made in order to withstand the test of time

  3. What sorts of copyright changes do you believe would best foster innovation and creativity in Canada?

  4. What sorts of copyright changes do you believe would best foster competition and investment in Canada?

  5. What kinds of changes would best position Canada as a leader in the global, digital economy?
