Last Chance To Stop SOPA From Coming To Canada

Posted by Soulskill on from the pretend-stopping-it-will-make-the-leafs-and-the-habs-win dept.

An anonymous reader writes "This weekend may be the last chance for Canadians to fight back against SOPA-style laws being added to Canadian copyright law, with the final hearing scheduled for Monday. In recent days, the copyright lobby has demanded website blocking, warrantless access to subscriber information, and unlimited damage awards. Michael Geist has the details on who to contact and Open Media has launched a campaign to encourage Canadians to speak out before Monday's Bill C-11 meeting. The group makes it easy to speak out against SOPA style reforms, harms to fair dealing, and unduly restrictive digital lock rules."

    A pussy with a dream/goal is still better than a dick who aimlessly pisses on those dreams/goals

    Both are better than an asshole who shits on everything though and ruin the world for everyone.

    Pussies can't do much about assholes, but a good pussy can entice a dick to rise up, and do something about the asshole.

    Now the writers of Team America World Police will come sue me for borrowing their analogy
