Hi,
Had a quick look at https://opencanalmap.uk/about/ particularly the
Canal & River Trust license link at the bottom, it clearly states
3.1 This licence does not permit the use of: .........3.1.4Data for or
in connection with or for the direct or indirect benefit of any
Commercial Purpose; and
so I think that the data does not meet OSM license requirements
particularly Commercial purposes.
However canoeing data does seem to be something that OSM should work with.
