Canada's Internet Copyright Bullshit Law
Posted: 2 February 2012
As early as next week, the same corporations that tried to sabotage our online freedom in Washington are trying their luck in Ottawa - but our movement is perfectly poised to kill this latest threat. Two weeks ago 3 million Avaazers helped beat back America’s global attack on our Internet — now is our chance to win again on our home turf.
Canada’s new SOPA-like law would let corporations go after media sharing sites like YouTube - and could even deny Internet access for citizens merely accused of infringing copyright laws! MPs have tried to pass this law three times before and failed — if we can target Parliament’s most vulnerable conservative MPs and show them that Internet censorship could cost them votes and even their re-election, we can save our Internet again.
Parliament could vote on the bill this as early as next week — let’s raise a massive national call to the weakest Harper MPs and force them to bow out of the vote to save their own skin.
