Thank you for the alert, Stevan. This might be a good moment to consider / re-consider the question of archiving for sustainable long-term open access. It is true that Canada is not the U.S. - but the U.S. is our main trading partner and a friendly neighbour but also a very powerful neighbour with whom we share not only a very long border but also intelligence information.
I argue that multiple copies of archives, not only in friendly neighbouring countries but also in regions that are different both geographically and politically, is in the best long-term interests of ongoing sharing of our collective knowledge. Thoughts?
