Coming Canadian Copyright Bill

[Patrick]

It looks like the bill has been pushed back until late January.


I've had a bit of a "run around" with this.

I called Jim Prentice's office in Ottawa on Monday and was transfered to 
Calgary were I left a message.

I got a call back from the Canadian Intellectual property office 
"returning my call" today but not from the MPPs office.

I called Calgary again and spoke to someone. They took down some notes 
but I was disappomited that there was no two way dialog on the matter.



Not much to report really, boring actually, but we have to get on top of 
this bill and we should keep talking about it.

I will report back if I have anything useful to contribute.
