What really gets me is why won't Bev Oda et al list listen to the actual Canadian Music Industry?

Last year, all Canadian music labels pulled out of the CRIA (Canadian Recording Industry Association). Graham Henderson, who is quoted frequently in the CP article, is the head of an association of Multinational Music labels with no actual Canadian Music Labels.

And during the last election, here were a list of some of Bev Oda's campaign contributors:

copyright lobby groups - CRIA, CFTA, CMPDA, CMMRA, Director's Guild, Entertainment Software Association, SOCAN, Writer's Guild
record labels - BMG Canada, EMI Canada, Sony Music Canada, Warner Music Canada, Universal Music Canada
