Canadian DMCA Introduction Delayed
| Message Board > Found on the web > Canadian DMCA Introduction Delayed |
| _Griphin_ User Info... | The word this afternoon is that Industry Minister Jim Prentice will not introduce the Canadian DMCA tomorrow. The thousands of letters and phone calls over the past week have urged the government to adopt balanced copyright reforms that meets everyone's needs and does not unduly harm education, consumer rights, privacy, and free speech. The delay provides an exceptional opportunity for Minister Prentice to consult more broadly and to factor those concerns into the forthcoming bill in the interests of all Canadians. Update: Media coverage (CBC, CP) covers the delay of the Canadian DMCA. It remains to be seen whether the delay is for a day or two or for at least six weeks. Moreover, if the longer delay, it will be important to see how Prentice takes advantage of the time to consult Canadians on copyright reform. http://canadianpress.google.com/article/ALeqM5jvt3LW3hjo1fIaaiwZACBiZ0R3wA - Copyright amendments cause Internet stir for government http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2007/12/10/tech-copyright.html - Copyright reform bill critics eye victory - Tue, 11 Dec 2007 5:14pm | ||
