Mr. Speaker, my question is quite simple and concerns copyright.
A copyright payment is a royalty. It is a salary. It provides a living. My question is very simple: what do we call copyright legislation that essentially prevents creators from receiving an income? That is a key question. We keep talking about copyright, but this bill is essentially about denying copyright. It denies creators the possibility of making a living from their creations.
How can we hope to encourage creation when the creators are denied income?
