Canard with dihedral a la Stagger-EZ

[Localizer]

Hello all,
I've been wondering about Steve Wright's interesting canard configuration.  I understand that roll rate is increased due to less turbulent air over the ailerons, but I was wondering if this also increases roll stability due to dihedral effect.  A Long-EZ builder/pilot friend of mine was commenting on his aircraft's lack of dihedral on any surface, and I immediately thought of the Stagger-EZ.  Anyone have any first-hand info/insight on this setup?  Has anyone tried this on a Long-EZ?  If you're browsing this forum Steve, your comments would be very welcome.  Cheers!

There was a long-ez that was modified like that. As I recall there
were minimal changes to the flying qualities with a very
slight increase in roll rate. There is a write up in an old
CSA newsletter.

For some reason he never wanted to talk about it.
