Many other national contributors <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors> use an OGL licence, such as in the UK <https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/3/>. These contain very similar attribution terms as the OGL-CA licence. I noticed our Canada section of the (now vast) contributors' page was missing language that the OGL-CA licence requires, so I added it: ‘/Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Canada <http://open.canada.ca/en/open-government-licence-canada>./’ I may have put it in the wrong place; discuss.
No one has proposed an import of OGL-CA licenced data, so there shouldn't be any in OSM. If someone wanted to import that data, it'd have to be discussed with the community, and the license would be part of it.
The various different Canadian adaptations of the OGL are not the same as the OGL, which was written in the UK and is explicitly compatible with CC BY and the ODbL. Some of the Canadian versions do not even qualify as open licenses.
