Bibliowiki, formerly known as WikiLivres is another Canadian site that also has Canadian public domain material. This includes Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler.

Interesting, it just borrowed "The Collected Raymond Chandler" from the Toronto Public Library. It is a Penguin Random House book. The title page has this nice line: "This title is in the public domain in Canada and is not subject to any license or copyright." The same line also appears in the Hammett book.
