(Below was ripped from the above site.)

Over the coming weeks, the Government of Canada will be hosting a 
nationwide consultation on copyright modernization.

The government believes that all Canadians have a stake in this 
dialogue. That is why the Honourable Tony Clement, Minister of Industry, 
and the Honourable James Moore, Minister of Canadian Heritage and 
Official Languages, are encouraging Canadians to join the discussion and 
to express their views throughout the consultation period, from July 20 
to September 13, 2009.

This website will help Canadians find important resources about 
copyright and the modernization process to date. It will record the 
progress of these consultations so that you can follow the major issues 
shaping the conversation. You can stay in touch by following our RSS Feed.

You can participate in a few different ways:

The online submission centre: This gives you an opportunity to respond 
to a few specific questions on copyright. You can also submit your own 
paper or report to us so that other people can view your work.

The online discussion forum: This interactive venue gives you a forum to 
talk to the government and to each other online.

The multimedia centre: This will hold the audio and video transcripts of 
the round tables and town hall meetings. (Check back soon!)

In a city near you: Minister Clement and Minister Moore will be hosting 
two town hall meetings (one in Montréal and one in Toronto) later this 
summer. There is limited space available for members of the public --- 
but even if you can't be there in person, you can still participate via 
web streaming.
