Dead on the pitch or not?

CANADIAN RULING:
The ball remaining live with the holder having possession and a knee on the ground is an exception for just that: holding the ball for purposes of a kick. Passing the ball is no longer for purposes of a kick, and therefore the exception no longer applies, therefore the ball becomes dead.
