Organizations and individuals can elect to licence their educational materials using one of the six CC licences.  But what happens if another organization or individual chooses to ignore this licence and use or sell the materials in violation of the licence guidelines?  In Canada we have copyright laws like every other country in the world, but I am not sure the courts would recognize the Creative Commons copyright.  How does one enforce a copyright licence when it is not codified into national or international laws?  What penalties if any exist for those who do not comply to the licence?
