It can't change between now (I'm writing this on 2 January), and this Spring, because new books only enter the public domain on 1 January. The proposed move to Life + 70 is not retroactive.

As to whether USMCA -- the agreement requiring Canada to go to Life + 70 in the near future, while the U.S. continues to put it off for decades -- will be ratified -- it seems probable

I'm not sure if the first of the 20 missed Canadian public domain days would be 1 January 2020 or, maybe, 1 January 2021. Does anyone know?
