I seem to hear comments about Nikon being better protected in general![/quote]
This is a myth, IMO. And I'm sure it's based on the simple fact that Nikon puts a rubber seal ring on the mount of any new lenses, including plastic kit lenses. That doesn't say anything about lens sealing at all, only that the lens mount is covered.

Another question, Nikon France has a very well organised set of courses on the various aspects of photography. I have not been able to find anything similar organized by Canon? Do you know of anything?

From my experience, one of the best sources of information are other shutterbugs. Try to find some other photographers in your area, meet regularly, learn and explore together.
