It's funny you mention Knight, because Gord Knight went to court over the question of whether the electrical code is "law" or not. He was being sued by CSA for publishing his "Electrical Code Simplified" guide, which quotes excerpts from the CEC. CSA argued that their copyright was being infringed, and Knight argued that the code was adopted as law and therefore copyright rests with the Crown. The courts found that the code is a "voluntary standard referenced in regulation" and CSA retain copyright over its content.
