Canadian version of Ubuntu

[Rob Bowers]

I just want to second an earlier suggestion (by Peter Whittaker) that this
Canadian version of Ubuntu be done within Ubuntu -- with its endorsement,
and as a part of the larger project.

I think we should stay away from canoes, loons, and maple leaves, though.
I'd be most satisfied with it if the only difference in the Canadian
distribution is the very detail that US law restricts.

People would ask "Why is there a Canadian version? What's the difference?"
And we want people to ask these questions...

"We're working under Canadian laws right! ;-)" (Darryl Moore).
Well said!
