Comment Re:Perspectives of Canadian Political Parties? (Score 1) 870
You seem quick to denounce the conservatives on this one. The corrupt canadian Liberals who are currently in power are the most in favour of such draconian IP laws because it caters to their constituents.. the canadian heritage minister, Liza Frulla seen recently at canada's juno awards (canadas grammy's) slumming for music industry donations.. luckily if an election were called today her seat would be in danger. Are the conservatives a worse choice than the NDP in this? no. The NDP are totally in favour of harsher IP law. (though jack layton is all in favour of file sharing..) Personally I voted conservative the last election (and feel vindicated doing so for the most part) because the (now) MP told me flat out that she would not support the DMCA based on the information she had on it, that it was bad for Canadian business and consumers. Also Stephen Harper at least owns an ipod. Prime Minister Paul Martin probably can't program his own VCR.. unless it gives monetary kickbacks.
