Canadian
Copyright Law
Copyright infringement has always been an invisible crime. In the past,
artists and producers have lost millions every year when their works
were used without permission. At times, it was hard for even the most
knowledgeable to keep current and know when they had crossed that unseen
line. Now, the explosion of the Internet and other digital media is making
copyright one of the most discussed issues of the new millennium. Many
regard the Internet as a public forum and assume material is free for
the taking. The line between what is protected and what is "free" is
blurring further and the copyright issues are more complex than ever.
Lesley Ellen Harris, lawyer and copyright expert, addresses these issues
and more. She takes the convoluted legal jargon of the Canadian Copyright
Act and sets it out in everyday language. She provides concrete examples
to offer further clarification of complicated matters.
