   Many good points on #copyright reform supporting Canadian innovation in this article (especially on digital locks)! Also concerning and relevant (though not mentioned) there's the issue of the new Canadian change to timeframe for works entering the #PublicDomain due to US pressure in the new NAFTA.

      @jc It's unfortunate that the Americans keep trying to drag #copyright laws into #trade treaties. Copyright is a matter of compromise between different interests, and putting it into treaties makes adjusting the terms of the compromise very difficult.
