All,

  Seems Micheal has finnaly gotten on the right band wagon.
Lets hope ICANN's IPC and Bod will as well.  I am also glad
and proud that many of our Canadian members have lead this
charge, and that their exemplary leadership is so demonstrated
accrodingly...

  Yet the shame that ICANN and some other government leadership
and representatives have decided to remain in lock step with Intelectual

property special interest groups at the detrament and exploitation of
those they purport to serve...  Shame on them!

Copyright for Canada Facebook group is nearing 90,000 members. There are

local chapters, a  http://c61in61seconds.ca/ YouTube contest, wikis, and
people writing letters and organizing rallies against the copyright
bill. Geist said, 'When
you get tens of thousands of Canadians speaking out like this, there's
big
political risk for any political party who chooses to ignore it.
