Oh, I understand that it is legal for me to do copy it and distribute it to my fellow Canadians... the question is, is it legal for the fellow in USA to receive them? Some of the stuff that is in public domain in Canada is NOT in public domain in USA.

How is it illegal for him to download it from Canadian server, but it is legal to physically transfer the copies over the border (which he does when he brings them with him to USA)?
