  • Nick-D while it had crossed my mind that this could be a Canadian government photo, my quick Google search does not show this in top results which would be surprising if this is an official Canadian government photo. There are alternative explanations that would make sense, such as the photographer being a Canadian Armed Forces person or the employee of a government contractor who took this photo in a personal capacity. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, I think that AGF should apply here. --Pine 18:28, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • I don't see how anyone could take this image in a personal capacity, and the pattern of a single-use account posting a professional-grade image on Commons which has no metadata is almost always associated with a copyright violation. Nick-D (talk) 22:21, 7 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • (That said, if it can be established that this is PD - for instance a US military image - then I'd definitely support it, as it's an excellent photo). Nick-D (talk) 23:12, 8 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
