Here in Canuckland we’re starting to see the government work to update our copyright laws. Just last week Bill C-61 was dropped, and boy did it make a splash.
As usual, Michael Geist is working to translate this thing into common everyday language.
If you’re at all interested in fixing this corporate-driven legislation for something that actually protects copyrights while extending logical and reasonable rights to Canadians, get involved.
Look up your Minister and write them a letter. If you’re really pressed for time, someone has even written up a form letter that you can simply sign. They’ll even mail it off for you. It doesn’t get easier than this, people.
I wrote up my own letter to my M.P., as I’m taking this a little personally and wanted to make sure Mr. Hiebert knows about my specific concerns.
