DMCA “Canadian Style” Delayed

Posted by Tyler Kinch on 10th December 2007

Michael Geist reports that the introduction of a controversial copyright bill in Canada is being delayed.

This comes after a massive public outcry against what is speculated to be the bill’s contents. Hopefully Jim Prentice got the message and he will do public consultations with all stakeholders, before introducing another bill. We do need new copyright legislation in Canada, but it shouldn’t be written by corporate lobbyists.
