 From /.
"As the battle rages over a Canadian DMCA, Microsoft Canada has 
published an op-ed 
<http://www.thehilltimes.ca/html/index.php?display=story&full_path=2008/february/4/eisen/> 
in a political newspaper that Michael Geist describes as astonishingly 
misleading and factually incorrect 
<http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/2670/125/>. Microsoft tries to 
argue that Canadian copyright law provides no legal protections, even 
after it received one of the largest copyright damage awards in Canadian 
history just one year ago."

Copyright reform desperately needed in Canada to protect and encourage
