CIPPIC Granted Leave to Intervene in CBC v SODRAC

| February 11, 2015

CIPPIC has been granted leave to intervene before the Supreme Court of Canada in CBC v. SODRAC.  The case involves the interpretation of the reproduction right and its application to so-called "ephemeral copies" - copies of works for the purposes of facilitating the creation and transmission of broadcasts.  CIPPIC's intervention will focus on the role of the principle of technological neutrality in interpreting the reproduction right.
