Very interesting and actually quite relevant to a book I'm writing now.
Quick question: In the U.S. government documents are not protected by
copyright and can be reproduced freely. A quick look at
http://www.olf.gouv.qc.ca/propriete.html tells me that this is not
the case in Canada, and I would need to get permission before
reprinting the picture at
http://www.olf.gouv.qc.ca/images/clavier.gif in my book. However, My
French isn't nearly good enough for me to trust my translation; and
my knowledge of Canadian law is zilch. If anyone does know for sure
that permission is or is not required to reproduce a government
document, would you please let me know? Thanks. Right now I'm
assuming it is required.
