Thanks Matt, I have added this one to FreeGIS (it is the 75th entry!).
Matt, is there a link between your 90m DEM data and
the 180 DEM data already in FreeGIS?
I have described your license as Public Domain - is that correct?

To my mind this statement is true and can only underline Matts hint.
(Probably all Canadians on this list are already aware of this :-)
