Canadians: Globe and Mail wants you to rewrite the Copyright Act

Jesse sez, "The Globe and Mail has set up a Wiki where anybody can contribute and offer their thoughts on copyright in Canada to draft a community-sourced version of a new copyright bill, as opposed to the horrible Bill C-61 that the Harper Government was trying to ram through last year.

The original BIll C-61 is provided as a starting point, which 'You can use the built-in wiki tools to modify …and add or remove whatever you think is necessary to create a piece of modern copyright legislation.'

The Globe and Mail will submit the final version to Ottawa for consideration on Canada Day, July 1st."
