Canadian Industry Minister lies about his Canadian DMCA on national radio

[Lazybones]

CBC Radio's Search Engine just posted/aired its interview with Canadian Industry Minister Jim Prentice about his Canadian version of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. They've been trying to get him on the air for months now and he finally consented to ten minutes, but he delivered nothing but spin and outright lies about his legislation and ended up hanging up on Jesse Brown, the interviewer.

This is a pivotal point in Canadian politics I think, we either take a stand here over DMCA, and send a message to foreign lobbyists who I think are driving this bill more than anything, or we pull our pants down and bend over...
