Since Canada is a strict death+50, so the first two are out of copyright in Canada right now. We can host their works here at MobileRead if someone will upload it. The third author's work will become pd on 1 January, 2010.
Australia is the same except for the thirds author. The Dent works have a copyright of death+70 because of a 2006 treaty signed with the USA.
P.S. Just because the work is still in copyright in the US doesn't mean it is in other countries.

Thanks, Nate. I can't do the work, as I live in the land of the Mouse, but my list of Coming Soon is still valid.
