Conservatives to Introduce Copyright Legislation
| April 10, 2006
The Hill Times is reporting that the Conservatives intend to introduce a copyright bill. Heritage Minister Bev Oda stated that "Copyright legislation has to be amended to make [compliant] our copyright laws and ratify the international treaties. We will be introducing a new copyright bill that will expedite meeting our international obligations but also making sure that we have a copyright regime and a copyright framework that's appropriate." The bill is not expected during the spring session.
