Canada on US "special 301" watch list

Canada is tentatively on the US Special 301 watch list as a copyright 
violating country.

Ars Technica and Geist point out a very nice submission to the USTR by the 
US CCIA (computer company group).

I found the 11 page submission quite readable and worthwhile.
