Matt,

You can find the license you get when buying from us which is exactly the
same as the one you get when getting maps from NRCan :
http://www.softmaptech.com/download/canmatrix/License_eng.pdf

We are a reseller of the canmatrix products. We are not under this license.
But don't worry, we made arrangements with NRCan (by the way, we're working
with them for more than 10 years) and everyone is happy (including the final
customer).

Hi Sylvain, boy I wish I'd known about Softmap 3 months ago before we
bought the 250k set and I set to work building scripts to remove the
collars!  What kind of arrangement did you have to make with NRCAN to
bypass the 150dpi redistribution restriction? What license are the
softmap canmatrix files under? If we buy the set listed above, can
anybody in our department use the image? What about other departments?
Other affiliated organisations?

thanks,
