Ah, apologies - I mis-read your question!
Photographs are "artistic works" under the Canadian Copyright Act:
"artistic work includes paintings, drawings, maps, charts, plans, photographs, engravings, sculptures, works of artistic craftsmanship, architectural works, and compilations of artistic works" (Copyright Act, sec. 2)
So they should be part of the 70 years rule.
Good luck!

Thanks, Lisa. I am also familiar with this resource: https://www.ualberta.ca/faculty-and-staff/copyright/intro-to-copyright-law/licensed-royalty-free-content/pd-flowchart---types.html as well as the excellent book by Jean Dryden, “Demystifying Copyright.” What I’m not clear about is whether the copyright extension to 70 years which has just come into force applies only to literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, and is silent on any changes to copyright as applies to photographs?

Hi Mary Grace,
The Canadian Council of Archives has a good copyright bulletin on the 2012 modernization act here https://archivescanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Bulletin10_EN.pdf<https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Farchivescanada.ca%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2022%2F08%2FBulletin10_EN.pdf&data=05%7C01%7Cmkosta%40CSJCANADA.ORG%7C310bdca865db49b1650808daf18bcd68%7C9bb0728ff2be442d931a2b1228a2f553%7C1%7C1%7C638087880027119025%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=dHL8QBBercAofLxOup1rCSUS7Z9ioBoFLy%2FqDMOtHK8%3D&reserved=0> . The successive provisions it mentions did indeed come into force.
If anyone has a more recent bulletin/newsletter/summary, I would be interested in it as well.
Thanks,

Subject: Copyright question
I have a copyright question. I know there is an extension of copyright for 20 more years (to 70 years) for literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, but just wondered if there is a corresponding extension to photographs to which currently a span of 50 years applies?
