In June 2008, the Canadian government introduced Bill C- |
|
61, new copyright legislation that closely followed the |
|
U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The public |
|
response to the bill was both immediate and angry - tens |
|
of thousands of Canadians wrote to the Minister and their |
|
local Members of Parliament, leading to town hall |
|
meetings, negative press coverage, and the growing |
|
realization that copyright was fast becoming a mainstream |
|
political and policy issue. This film, produced by |
|
Michael Geist and Daniel Albahary, asks Canadians from |
|
across the country and from a wide range of sectors the |
|
question - "why copyright?". |
