J S Woodsworth

Public domain
This Canadian work is in the public domain in Canada because its copyright has expired for one of the following reasons:
1. it was subject to Crown copyright and was first published more than 50 years ago, or

it was not subject to Crown copyright, and

2. it is a photograph that was created before January 1, 1949, or
3. the creator died more than 50 years ago.
Maple leaf
The media description page should identify which reason applies, and should also have a rationale explaining the copyright status of the work in the U.S. Some Canadian photographs created before 1949 may be copyrighted outside of Canada, such as e.g. the images of Yousuf Karsh.

(Woodsworth died in 1942, so the photo must have been created before January 1, 1949.)

The image linked here is claimed to be used under fair use as:

  1. It is a photograph of a historically significant individual (the subject of the article);
  2. The photo is only being used for informational purposes.
  3. The subject of the photo is deceased so an image with a compatible licence cannot be produced and no free alternatives have been found.
  4. Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to the article because it demonstrates the likness of the subject of the article.

Source is likely National Archives Canada (http://www.collectionscanada.ca/) per this citation. Search facility there is currently off-line (3Nov2006). Other variations of this same photo appear on numerous websites.
