Industry committee  Access Copyright doesn't represent every author in the world, but it represents—

Industry committee  Just like any other collective, Mr. Graham, it represents a very large percentage of authors and publishers. That system was potentially viable. I'm not saying they represent everybody, but no collective represents everybody.

Industry committee  Mr. Graham, would you mind if I just said for 20 seconds what I—

Industry committee  Okay. It's neither here nor there whether any particular author is or is not within a repertoire. What's really important for this committee is why Access Copyright is not being paid after tariffs are certified by the board, and what this committee can recommend to address that

Industry committee  That's a great narrative, and those who oppose effective rights and remedies often use that narrative. I don't accept it. If you look at the Canadian marketplace, you see that it has a plethora of rights as far as TV and streaming go. We have Netflix and a lot of other services,

Industry committee  We have—

Industry committee  I'll give you a couple of points, given the time I have. First of all, he said that there's no repertoire, and I've already dealt with that. Boards have certified tariffs, and they've looked at the repertoire. To say that they have no repertoire is just not right. Second, the b

Industry committee  He hasn't been paid because the educational institutions are not paying. If they did, he would he get paid.

Industry committee  When it comes to piracy, there's no silver bullet. Multiple tools are needed to address piracy. You can look at the statistics. Let's say you look at TV piracy. The Armstrong Consulting report showed that the loss is between $500 million and $650 million per year. These are rea

Industry committee  In that 20 seconds, I'll comment that Access Copyright has had numerous tariffs certified by the board. Their repertoire has been challenged. It is simply nonsense to assert that they don't have rights to license.

Industry committee  When it comes to blocking, the regimes around the world have done it in two ways. They either have court orders, or they've done it through administrative agencies, which have all the hallmarks of judicial oversight. We have Greece, Spain and others, about seven countries around

Industry committee  Mr. Lloyd, that's a great question. I appreciate that you like debates. Thank you. It depends on whom you're talking about. One of the things about notice and notice, which does have its drawbacks, as Steven mentioned, is that when users who don't know what they're doing get the

Industry committee  You're exactly right. There has been a lot of study of this by courts in the United Kingdom. The argument that has been put to those judges is that these orders are easy to circumvent, and they will be. The judges have actually found and expressed the opinion that in fact most us

Industry committee  They were. If your question is why we need a regime for site blocking, which I think is what you're getting at—

Industry committee  —then let me tell you why. First of all, the site-blocking regimes around the world have proved to be effective and to work. Some of the detractors of it oppose site blocking before fair play and say, “Let's have courts do it.” Then they show up before this committee and say, “N
