Public Domain Day 2010

Wallace McLean posts his annual list of authors whose works enter into the public domain in Canada this year.  There is additional coverage of public domain day here and here.  The issue should resonate particularly strongly this year, given the news that the European Union is demanding that Canada extend the term of copyright by an additional 20 years to life of the author plus 70 years (it is currently life plus 50 years).
