Re: [Talk-ca] Stats Canada building project

municipalities will follow what the federal is doing. ideally everything would be public domain, but that would be a utopian world. forget them switching to ODbL, most people have no idea about it and is very restrictive when you want to change licenses in the future. On Sep 27, 2017 7:01 PM,
