Canada - Bloc Leader Wants ISPs Liable for Copyright Infringement
Date : 2008 07 07 Category : Web News
The copyright reform debate in Canada has a new twist - and it comes from the party that wants to separate Quebec from Canada. Bloc leader Gilles Duceppe answered a concerned Canadian's letter over bill C-61 with what his stance is.
It may highlight what could be something that would send chills down the spines of many users of digital media and technology. After the Liberal party's Bill C-60 and the Conservatives Bill C-61, some may have hoped that the Bloc (the third largest party currently sitting in the Canadian House of Commons) would oppose the current legislation and offer something a little more pro-consumer. Those hopes were very likely dashed after the leader of the Bloc made his stance clear on the legislation.
