As of November 7, we now own the copyright to commissioned portraits etc. (Notice-and-notice is one part of the changes in C-11 that is not in effect yet, though.)

Detail on the changes to copyright in photography: http://www.canphoto.net/bill-c-11-recei ... ed-photos/

Michael Geist on the bill coming into effect today, with links etc.: http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/6692/125/
