Subject: "Canadian" spelling - do you use it.? Should we bother?

I've had a couple of letters to the editor published in the local paper recently. The editor changes my spelling. In the latest one, benefitted becaome benefited.

I wonder if any papers are using Canadian spelling - and what about literary journals? I know of one which insists on Canadian or British spelling in its guidlines, but is it only a matter of time before that changes?

And what about novels? What would you use in your MS?
