I thought I read on this list in the past that OSM had permission directly from NRCan to use the CanVec data. Bernie. BTW, the GeoNB Open Data Licence in New Brunswick is more permissive with its attribution clause. We use "should" instead of "must" therefore it is not a requirement, just a suggestion. http://geonb.snb.ca/documents/license/geonb-odl_en.pdf Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone on the Bell network.
The agreement between CANVEC and OSM was drawn up before the .odbl license and change to the uploading procedure which says any data uploaded to OSM can have its license changed. I'm of the opinion that the CANVEC licensed data cannot now be imported into OSM under the new conditions however others in Talk-ca have said that I don't know what I'm talking about. In other words don't ask, don't tell and let's face it without the CANVEC data there would be very little left. Cheerio John 2015-10-11 19:06 GMT-04:00 Bruno Remy <bremy.qc...@gmail.com>:
