Late last week, after a number of years of debate and consideration, Canada’s copyright reform bill was granted Royal Assent and enacted into law. Bill C-11, the Copyright Modernization Act, takes important steps toward updating Canada’s copyright system with the aim of implementing the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Performances and Phonograms Treaty and the WIPO Copyright Treaty. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is pleased that the Canadian government has enacted the copyright reform bill and believes the passage of Bill C-11 is a positive step forward in ensuring that important intellectual property (IP) rights for Canadian creators and innovators are protected.
