Fair Use Images

Fair (and legal) use of images that you did not create is controlled by Canadian copyright law.  As are most laws, the law itself is difficult reading, but you can find it at the Government of Canada's Copyright Act pages. Explanations regarding the principle of "fair dealing" with copyright materials can be found, amongst other places, in the Wikipedia article of the same name.
